Greif8 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) I completed the simple base yesterday and mounted the plane and pilot on it so this build is 100% complete. Following are a few photos. As I stated in the in progress thread I took a bit of artistic license when it came to shading the blue and red - though due to the shadows the top wing gives under certain light conditions the differences red shading actually looks a lot less than it showed up in the pictures I took during the build. As an aside I have started the next step in my WWI German aircraft odyssey this year as I have started the WNW Albatros DV/DVa "Wooden Wonders" kit. Replicating the wood should be fun and hopefully I won't make too much of a hash with the rigging. I'll start a new "in Progress" thread soon.

Thank you for the nice words guys. The build turned out presentable (not all of mine do). I wish I could have gotten the figure better though.
