WHM sells a beautiful HU-16A and a HU-16B Albatross in 1/50 scale. Works of art. Not easy to build but they come out extremely accurate and detailed. Just check the landing gear alone. It deserves a separate exhibition.

Where can these models be found?

Stop mentioning other designers in this or any other designer thread, it is disrespectful, and doesn't contribute to the conversation.

Niki,

Normally I would have given you the url to Wilhelmshaven models, but it seems they are offline at the moment.

And I am not seeing any online vendor selling WHM at the moment

Noted. We'll have to coerce Aaron into designing one.

I post this only for information. I can't see why is disrespectful to state for the benefit of other modelers where similar models are available.

No, they are not offline, I have just checked Herr Wolter's web page and it is working fine.

I wasn't aware that the url had changed, so my remembered urls were out of date

Thank you

it disrespectful to do so when the original poster is a designer himself, and wants to make money and serve his customer base with the models they would like to see and buy.

How would you like it if business was taken away from you and your product line?

I insist, it is not disrespectful. It is legal and just fair competition. We still live in under a free market economy. And in case you ignore it and as far as I know, Herr Wolter is not a designer. I might be wrong but I am almost sure. And if anyone mentions another brand, it might mean business!! Legal, not pirated business. A modeler might purchase WHM Albatross and also the future Murphs version. I know of several modelers having several Mustangs of several brands. Also in plastic, they can buy Revell's Mustang, Airfix, Hasegawa, etc.. No harm done.
