albatros d.v

[camel crew]

Got a new D.V Weber (WGF103D) today (I love my lads) with a yellow body. The D.V on the Aerodrome store has a brown/bronze body which was the one I fancied. Question does the b/b bodied D.V exist or is it just how the colour shows up at the Store?

The brown fuselage must have been a prototype miniature.
But Ares has never changed the official picture on its website.

And the official Albatros D.Va Weber has a yellow fuselage.

Yes, the fuselage is yellow.

I ordered the reprint based on that photo and was most disappointed when they (finally) arrived.

I can totally understand why people are disappointed (Orange/Brown is not yellow) but I was positively surprised when my Weber arrived. I've flown several hours in Rise of Flight with the basic DVa and from what I remember this yellow DVa represents this perfectly.

The yellow of the mini is a bit TOO yellow - it should be more "straw" coloured, but it is a much closer match than that promo brown.

well, that solves that problem. A minor paint alteration changing the 1 into a 4 gives me 2 Weber variants

Ha!! What a coincidence. I did exactly the same. I didn't fancy the yellow one but quite liked the brown, which is why I bought it. The plane arrived yesterday but it was the same colour as the wings of war version... I haven't opened the box as I just don't like the colour and am not sure if I want to keep it or not.

This however is not an isolated case. I also bought the Hannover CL.111a for the wife as the camo pattern in the online photos is PURPLE. (wife loves purple)

So imagine my disappointment when it arrived yesterday and the camo was blue and green! Aghhhhh
