A few pics of my Albatros by Constructo 1/55 scale, almost all the major hull details have been finished except the guns, next the masts and all the rigging should take about 10 days to finish. This is first of 2 Christmas presents to myself so far i am pleased with the results. I will post a few new pics when its finished, any and all comment welcome.
