Albatros DVa in 1/33rd from L.P. Igualada

Hello Folks,
I started this guy about a month ago during Wayne's virtual meetings (you should come) but it only started to resemble bits of an Albatros tonight. So far, it's been steady as she goes! Parts call for backing the paper on 0.5, 0.7 and 1.0mm card stock (in my case, balsa). I learned from experience that those tiny differences are critical to fit! So tonight was lots of cutting out, sanding and then finally getting some cockpit interior parts started with formers and even the little aileron pulleys on the floor. They need to be rigged, but it's starting to slowly resemble an Albatros cockpit!

More tomorrow and thanks for looking,
Dan
