Algernon Pulls It Off! More Albatros goodness of Jasta 5

 I finished three more machines for Jasta 5. This time they are Albatros D.V variant. The placement of the wing exhaust vent, and tail shape are the only difference that you would see in this scale. 

The all green machine was flown by Rudolf Matthaei, the half white with red band flown by Heinrich Bussing, and finally the one with the Red heart on machine was flown by Werner Voss.

Coming out of my coma like illness I made mistakes in painting my D.III's in D.V colors and vice versa, but unless I said something no one would know but me.

The last picture shows all six machines I have done on the prowl.

As always thanks for looking.

Algernon Pulls It Off! Albatros D.III's of Jasta 5

Well it finally bloody well happened. My Wife and I for the first time caught Covid over Christmas. Wow, I would not wish this upon anyone. Probably more to do with our age, but man we both feel steam rolled and quickly tire out at the simplest of chores. After seven days I am just now feeling like sitting at the painting table. So today I did a few aircraft.  

 On the WWI air group I belong to the challange this month is to paint up in any scale Albatros D.III's or D.V's and can be as colorful or as simple as you want.

My chosen subject are D.III's from Jasta 5 in 1:285th scale. These are 3D prints by Paul at Sabotag3D.com. I picked out two machines I really liked in Wilhelm Lehmann's Edelweiss decorated machine, and Hans Von Hippel's famous Blitz decorated machine. The third one is one I just made up because, well, I did.

As always thanks for looking.

Cheers
