Hey all, this is one for the 109 experten. I came across this image of a bellied in 109 E which seems to have a solid color fuselage & tail planes with splinter pattern wings, possibly a yellow nose, white wing tips and factory codes indicating a new aircraft/ delivery bird. Does anyone have any info on this ? Cheers Vaughn

I repurposed a base I had scratch built for something else. The Albatros logo pins I found on line and they are held on with magnets as the base will serve for any WW I German model. Still waiting on the Proper Plane propeller.. things are slowed down by the war. Cheers Vaughn
-
The rad cooler vanes and control were scratch built... The turnbuckles come with the kit... Still need to add the gun sights.. need aftermarket for them as they are not supplied.
-
A few more shots of detail.. most of this is the kit detail, I just added decals (airscale) and some piping here and there in the cockpit. The right side had no handles for the engine controls so they were made from the resin support tree's and the copper tubing was made from copper wire. Airscales WW I decals were used.. the guages seem to be a bit undersized but things worked pretty good. I added tubing from wire and thin strips of paper wrapped around to make fittings.
-
Thank you so much ! That's a huge compliment !
-
Thanks much !!

The engine for this kit is printed in one piece...beautiful but very challenging to paint. I added the bolts for the mounts as they were not on the engine. Doing the striped cloth ignition wires was..interesting...
-
For those interested, Kermit Weeks had a new reproduction Albatros built, the pics on his site of the ground up build are to die for ! http://www.thevintageaviator.co.nz/projects/aircraft/albatros-dva/creating-new-albatros
-
The fuel tank looks great, just needed some piping to make it look the part.
-
Some of the parts are just exquisite ! The only thing missing was the throttle so I scratch built one from stretched sprue and other bits... The supplied thread added for rigging..
-
I managed to find pics of the build.. so in a way this will be hit or miss but I hope you will find them enjoyable/ helpful. This is my first time doing an oil paint fuselage so I just went with it.... I used various tones to get contrast as the real aircraft is pretty bland..but I didn't want to overdo it... The screw heads were picked out in graphite from a pencil.
