Hmmm. Got a little bleeding of the red into the blue that I hadn't noticed before. I'll have to touch that up with a fine brush. Still it's a simple but attractive scheme and yes Adam, it did take a bit of masking to achieve but I'd think nowhere near as much as some of the more complicated schemes. I'm enjoying gettingback into the craft with this and the P-40. I have a lot of skills to relearn but I'll get there. Thanks for the kind words of encouragement fellows.

Regards,

Ross,

Nice work. You are not the only one to have been taken by the looks of the 'Biele Albatrosy' Albatross and the Eduard kit.

I purchased the KP kit many years ago to use the Blue Rider 'White Albatross' decals on. A waste of the decals I concluded when you see how crude the KP kit was. Incidentally, it's interesting that KP is releasing kits again, and they are more aligned with contemporary standards, even though they're not exactly at the Tamiya level.

As a treat, here's a dated profile video of the team. I can't translate the Slovak for you unfortunately.

G'day Nicholas. Could you put me onto a source for these decals again. I'd like to do this one again, perhaps with different tail numbers. My paint job isn't the best but I'll leave it as is for the time being. When it comes time to do this one again I'll recover this model and do it up in one of the Third World schemes. I got these decals from a contact of Jakub Jakepilot( Jakub Cikhart) over at ARC but I can't remember who it was now. Hoping you can help me out here.

Regards,
RHB.
