Fred Jack Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Does anyone know if you can put the nose cap A29 from a WnWs Early Rumpler C.lV to convert Roden Albatross D.lll to an Albatross OEAFFAG D.lll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alburymodeler Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I too would like an Alb D.III Oeffag, but have not looked to much into it. I cannot recall anything written up about the work required, but someone will know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seiran01 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 It’s not going to fit... you’d need a dedicated conversion or scratchbuild the new nose unless you manage to track down the rare old kit (battle axe?)

blackbetty Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 built this one some time ago, i scratched the cowling https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?/topic/26131-oeffag-albatros-diii-austrian-lft-1917/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richdlc Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Albatros D.II & D.III Oeffag - JaPo Publishing has technical drawings in 1/48 that might help, plus it's a fantastic book although rare & OOP Die Albatros (Oeffag) Jagdflugzeug der k.u.k. Luftfahrtruppen - Peter Schiemer is an equally good book but also hard to find Kagemusha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Don't hold your breath as the nose of the BattleAxe kit was so wrong you had to scratchbuild it anyway. So, the Roden kit stays a far better starting point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Sounds like a great possibility for a resin aftermarket conversion? So many Austro-Hungarian options and add the Polish ones for fun too. Tnarg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
