I was going to bin this idea for a while as Mos posted his but we decided it would be okay (and kind of interesting if we both done it...though it was a good idea to not use the name he suggested for it. :rolf )

Anyway, in an effort to save money on film I borrowed his box shot (my box is a little past it's best), hope he doesn't mind to much.

I was a little surprised when I opened the box and the fuselage was already built. I have no idea when I started this, hope it doesn't break any GB rules by being started.

Made a start on the low-vis markings favoured by the Germans in WW1. :D

The Germans definately had a "Come and have a go if you think you're'ard enough" attitude to their aircraft paint schemes! :D

Great start mate.

It's quite a nice little kit, glad I've got another one on the shelf. :D

The endgames approaching with this one so I thought I'd better get one last update in. Top wing is on, lozenge decaling done, wheels in the paint shop, top wing paint started.

Looking forward to the end result mate.

By the way, I will send the decals soon, honest.

Typical, you wait ages for a bi-plane and then like buses three come along together. If these two finish up like the little Fokker they will be fine.

Thanks. The Albatros is going quite nicely, it's an Eduard kit and it's a little beauty. The Pfalz is Roden, it has no locating holes anywhere, just little marks where you're supposed to stick bits. It's...interesting. :D

Calling this one done. No shots of the underside as I'm a bit disappointed with the way it went (decal had to be joined as it wasn't wide enough to cover the wing and it later lost a few bits where it broke. :( )

As always...more in the gallery.
