Another WIP. This is the Eduard Aero L39 Albatros.

They are such a pretty little jet.
And it is really cool watching them race at Reno.

^^^^^^^ What he said

Thank you fellas. Mark Pracy was at Maitland this last weekend and put on a polished display. I have a pic of his Albatros in my bucket which I'll post tomorrow.

Great new project! Love the look of the Albatross - one of the all time great military jet trainers of our time. Looking forward to watching your progress with this.

Cheers

Nice Ross.
What scheme? I'm doing this one:

and it will eventually be in a diamond formation with the other three. Just waiting on Heller to release the patrouille de france kit later this year.

It will be an aerobatic team aeroplane. Let's see if you can guess which team.

A couple more photos of this one assembled and in primer.


And now the reveal. She's from a small Air Force's aero team. This team doesn't seem to exist anymore but did in the late 90s early 2000s. It the Slovak Air Force's White Albatrosses team. It's a fairly simple but I think pretty stunning scheme which attracted my attention as soon as I saw the first pic of it. The decals are from a modeller in the Czech Republic.




She's not quite finished yet but not much more to go and she will be.

RHB.

Great work so far - what a little cutie!

Looks like some complicated masking was required on this one.
