I really like your wood grain effect on the fuselage.

That's a nice one again!
Might be this question has been asked before and probably answered, though does not harm to ask in that case once more...
But what type of wire/thread are you using for rigging ? It looks very fine and crispy, but what type is it precisely?

thank Blacksheep and Kari.
The wire is a thin polyamid wire, it is from aswing shop, is transparent and is not so dust catching than cotton wire

Ahaa, thanks Cherrylock!
And did not even think of that cotton wire catches dust (and that stucks there for ever)
Makes perfect sense !

this is a real Albatros D.III (so you see the difference)
"Blau Maus" (Blue Mouse), the mount of Leutnant Hermann Frommherz of Jasta 2 (Boelcke), Spring 1917.

I've heard of the Blue Mouse. Very nice scheme. I'm guessing you used RLM 84?

Very nice Albatros, and looks exactly as I believe an Albatros should look like!
The light blue color is very nice and smooth.

thanks Kari and Blacksheep, the blue is a mix of white and some different blue to look like the profiles in www, I like it. So much colorful WW1 fighters, so this looks a ittle bit differnt.BlackSheep214 wrote:I've heard of the Blue Mouse. Very nice scheme. I'm guessing you used RLM 84?
