[WWI] OOB Revell Albatros D.III

[Douglas Anderson]

Hahahahaha, sod it. (Note, sod as in bit of soil, not being rude). I was going to write something relevant here waith a rather interesting question and the old grey matter let me down. I cannot remember what it was. 
  I need a holiday!

      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...
