The dodgy old Airfix Albatros DVa in 1/72


Recommended Posts

Done up in the livery of the captured aircraft displayed in the Australian War Memorial in Canberra.  Lots of extra detail added esp. engine, guns, cockpit, lower radiator.

 

For some bizarre reason, the museum repainted it, painting over the fuselage cross & tail ID number though these are still vaguely visible through the green paint.  And it seems they repainted the other crosses.  And left the starboard flap with the lozenge markings.

 

Someone told me this mold is still the one from the 50's, despite it being in a new 'Red Box'.  I think they are right.  It was very basic and a bit rough.
