Mikko,
Your completed models are all quite spectacular. Simply an outstanding collection of WW1 aircraft.

Mikko,

Great models! I can only hope to someday make a model to your standard.

Top Albatros: Lt. Hans Böhning?

I've always liked the Ansaldo.

Is that a Sopwith Tabloid? How did you replicate the hammered metal of the cowling?

I think I see the Airfix Hanover CL.IIIa.

The Bavarian Albatros D.V was flown by Lt. Wolf, Jasta 5

I painted the Tabloid cowling like this: First a layer of Citadel Leadbelcher (Boltgun Metal) and then I tapped on some Citadel Chainmail through mosquito net with a semi dry brush.

Yes, it is the good old Airfix Hannover built OOB!
