1/36 Albatros D.II

This is not my first scratch built model, it's my second. I've spent two years working on the thing, my schooling delayed my progress significantly. It started out as a W.4 but the plans I had left a lot to be desired. Plus I made the mistake of storing the fuselage in my old dorm, whch caused the 1st fuselage halves to warp. It just about done, I want it to be finished before school starts back up.

well not bad for your second scratch build if i remember right your first was when you were 7 or 8 years old and the Fokker DVIII is setting on the shelf.

Following in the old man's footsteps, I see. Nice first effort as an adult. Just don't drop the bloody thing!
