[WWI] OOB Revell Albatros D.III

[Andy Bannister]

Sounds like a great idea to me but if you're adding cockpit detail and
correcting the rear fuselage then it's not "straight out of the box"!

All this talk of OOB, I recently pulled out a Revell Red Albatros D.III and
had a hair up my *** to build it straight out of the box, add some cockpit
detail, thicken the rear fuselage a little (with the stand arm supplied, and
basically keep it all the red colour of the plastic. I believe this scheme
has been disproved by Lord Rimell, (Lt. blue bottom wings, camouflaged on
top), but part of me wants to see the plane all red again like it was in my
youthful days. I know he had an all red D.V(a). If I decide to camouflage
the wings, are they two colour or three colour?
I've just recently had a thing for red aircraft, (especially Richthofen's),
the more the better. Grouped together they have a look about them, and that
red plastic of the Revell kit...Would be nice to have a minimal paint job.
Any comments? Not that I might listen, but that model is sitting on my desk
waiting. And it would be a quick build and one more model out of the box and
on the shelf...
