Ditto and ditto. It would be great to see this and your other lovely work available in 1/33 scale. Have you considered an Albatros DrI?

regards

I like the Albatros DrI, but haven't plans of it

Possibly I will make models in 2 versions - 1/72 and 1/48 or 1/33.

What would you prefer - 1/33 version "as is" or add more details?

The Dornier looks very nice
I personally prefer the smaller scales, fast to build

1:48 is an excellent "in-between" scale. It allows a reasonable amount of detail but is easy on paper and ink. I have had success enlarging several of your 1:48 up to 1:32 and they build quite nicely.

Another winner }

If I have to choose I prefer 1/48. Some detail but the size is ok for my apartment

My vote is 1/33. One of the things I like about card is the ability to build big

You have an excellent level of detail. I think good structural engineering and the ease of working larger components is the big plus of 1/33, especially for us older types. yes, you can add more detail. I would say that the level of Orlik or WAK is good, Halinski is overkill. Good luck with your future work; there is no lack of interesting WWI topics.

regards
