Marklo Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 Darn the GBs finished and the Albatros isn’t. All I can say is that it’s significantly further on than when the GB started, ok in the interest of finishing it a punch list. 1. engine, 2. a prop 3. spinner, 4. rigging 5. cabane struts 6. windscreen 7. clear varnish ( maybe) will get stuck in tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Prop painted and the spinner turned down to size and shape. Now to fit them and glue them together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 Getting there. The carpet monster hit the first prop so this is the second one, and still needs a little more sanding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted April 22, 2022 Author Share Posted April 22, 2022 Started on the rigging and made a pair of cabane struts. Having dragged out the build I’m now determined to get it finished. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklo Posted April 25, 2022 Author Share Posted April 25, 2022 Spinner on and a coat of clear orange on the propellor. All the struts painted red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Now sporting an engine and a gantry coat of gloss red, one or two details, a little retouching and the windscreen and it’s finally finished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Windscreen added a fairly fancy affair by the standards of the day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pheonix Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 That certainly looks good - and more importantly, different. P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
