Back in December, our own Batesyboy sent me a sneak preview of an Albatros c1 prototype.
The design is beautiful but takes up a whole sheet of card stock with one 1/144 scale model.
I like to put at least four 1/144 scale models on one one sheet of card stock.
Consequently, I put the image in Gimp and eliminated the unnecessary parts in an attempt to put four models on one sheet of cardstock.
I did not manage to print four on one sheet but I did manage to print two on one sheet.

Lee intended for the two lower wings to be attached to the fuselage by butt joints.
However, I cut out a piece of the bottom fuselage and put it between the wings in the above image for a stronger build.
Lee may not be pleased that I mutilated his model.
Good thing that there is an ocean between us.
This thread will be continued as I build the prototype.
