aircare84 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) Here is my 3rd Wingnut Wings Albatros build. Finished in the markings or Richard Flasher of Jasta V from the Trilogy boxing. I added lead foil belts & HGW buckles to the seat, added pipes & control cables to the cockpit. Scratch built the throttle on the control stick grip. Added to the engine, Taurus spark plugs & valve springs. Added spark plug wires, various pipes, drains, fuel lines & throttle linkage. Added on the lower fuselage, photo etch access hatches & a fuel tank drain. Added rigging & control cables from transparent thread colored with a silver sharpie. Turnbuckles are simulated with micro brass tubing. Added the flare gun & field installed port on the L/H fuselage Painted with Xtracolor enamels. Pre shaded the ribs on the wings. Weathered using washes & pastels. Thanks for looking & all comments welcome.

Out2gtcha Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Excellent work! I think that would be one of the schemes I'd choose in the Trilogy boxing too. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kensar Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Very nice result! I especially like the oil drips and mud splatters on the bottom of the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
