This was nice to watch like usual. One my absolutely favourite channels on KZbin

You are very pleasing to follow Brent from down under

[@jmauney63]

Great job on the model. The Albatross D.V is one of the most aesthetically pleasing aircraft ever made IMHO. I don't like the yellow color, however. I feel the fuselage should be bare wood with variations from one panel to the next. Thanks for sharing your techniques, esp. the rigging. I have never even attempted to do the rigging myself.

[@richardperry21]

Andy you are a real artist....!

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Thank you. I try to inspire anyone and everyone .

Wow! You just have golden hands!! 5+ Super! 5+ 👍👍👍

[@sb-ant6457]

Fabulous review and build, and a top tip from and thanks to Mrs Andy on the rigging cable/thread. I think the paint scheme was bold of you and absolutely right, it shows the aircraft off much better than just one colour. We'll done you.

[@jonfoisy1237]

For many years I've wanted to build a ww1 fighter. Ideally one of richthofen's earlier bi planes. After seeing this video, I was hooked. I had to order one. Can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for sharing Andy!

[@isaiahtrofimenko1739]

One of your best models! Such a beauty. Thank you for sharing your work!

[@davidfusco6600]

Great video! Beautiful model. You’re easy to follow, with no BS’ing, keeping right to the point. I’m psyched to build my next model!

[@ednitram]

This is your best aircraft build. A masterpiece of skillful simplicity!

[@stevemiller7433]

gorgeous model. The Albatros is the most beautiful of the WW1 fighters.

[@oldtown6240]

Modeling by Andy is an art form. Terrific build.

[@maniacpanic666]

Sorry, but it looks like a toy...

[@MarksUselessChannel]

@@maniacpanic666 You built a more realistic one from that kit? We would all like to see it.

Excellent build, Andy! I’m looking forward to any possible future aircraft builds!

[@DarthRemey]

Beautiful build of a beautiful kit. Thanks for sharing.

[@mladtheimpaler]

It's nice to see you finally get around to building one of these kits! I hope you build more in the future.

[@lesthiele7645]

Hi Andy, I would just like to say that you have done a fantastic job of the Albatros D.V, its nice to see you do something slightly different. Again a great job done by a modelling expert. Cheers. Les

[@johnprice7303]

In an earlier life, I was an enthusiastic modeller of ww2 aircraft. I am now afflicted by a condition which make my hands shake uncontrollably and I need to use a spoon to Eat. But how I wish that I was capable of building this model. My since congratulations to the builder! F S

Excellent looking kit, another fantastic build 👍 Thanks!

[@donaldlang95]

WAUW!!! Just a beautiful job you made again.

[@marty01957]

Nice build ,Andy! Great video!

[@tigertanktoo]

That is one pretty Albatros. I'm not an airplane guy, but seeing builds like that can sure convince me to go get one.

[@williamshorrock-browne5999]

That's incredible... Well done!

[@moorsbert]

Nice build. Nice kit.

[@garyparker2969]

Awesome Build Andy, thanks for sharing, God Bless All

[@slackjaw703]

Just a stunning model. I was skeptical of the color scheme but that really turned out wonderful. The rigging line was a stroke if genius ax well. Just a very clean model, something that any modeler would be extremely proud to display.

[@waynecoulter6761]

I agree... the rear fuselage would have been varnished wood if I'm not mistaken... not yellow.

[@dtmjax5612]

Wayne Coulter Yes...the thing is nobody really knows for sure, and back then conditions, colors, an added scheme or two, could change on a daily basis. Very little if any unit standards.

[@ronschlorff7089]

@@dtmjax5612 and very little color photography then too ;)

[@ronschlorff7089]

@@waynecoulter6761 agreed, don't know why wingnuts suggested that color. It was a bit straw-ish colored, if cleared and not stained first, but that is way too yellow, IMHO. Good example of the need for your own research, even on a kit. Since I scratch most of mine, it's (the research) a major part of the build.

[@MothaLuva]

Wayne Coulter WNW does a real thorough job with their research, also with the colors. The picture(s) of the real airplane clearly show a different color on the rear of this airplane, compared to other Albatrosses with a natural varnished wood rear. I have the same model kit and there are some photos at the end of the instructions going with the particular paint schemes.

[@samaronegoncalves5112]

sort of like motorcycles with wings, eh? Problem is, bikers don't, usually, shoot at each other :D

[@henrikhilskov]

ooh yes and the gasoline tank just behind the very hot engine getting wind to blow burning fuel into your face. A fate really many pilots suffered...

[@ronschlorff7089]

@@henrikhilskov worse, some fuel tanks were in the cockpit and seats were on top of them, especially in German 2-seater reconnaissance planes of WW1. Not an ideal situation!

Great video

Very helpful Andy. Thank you.

[@ScaleModelKitReview]

I really like your color choice, the stock engine detail is outstanding and at 1/32 it screams even more wiring and superdetailing, I've got one in the stash and I hope to build mine very soon. The preorder limited version has a really nice Richthofen resin figure included with the kit. I look forward to watching your next project. Cheers.

[@patrickcanter2831]

Looks great! I can't wait to do MY bi-plane. I'l be sure to use the elastic thread.

[@chrisbarber5842]

A fantastic job keep it up Andy

[@matsb6463]

Very nice, what I really like you are careful with the weathering and the wash, some really goes over the top with that but you’ve done a really god job.

[@nickbutler7935]

A beautifully thought out and engineered kit. Down side is the price tag, but ultimately worth it. Great build Andy.

[@timtheeagle1]

Amazing! Just amazing! Terrific work! I had begun wondering where you went! Well I see now what took so long between videos! Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece!

[@bobchubb5673]

Outstanding build Andy, I really enjoyed the video! Keep up the great work, Bob

[@VonDrinkoften]

That's a gorgeous looking Albatross Andy and fantastic looking vibrant colours as well. Although possibly slightly overscale, the thread you have used looks excellent and ideal for those of us who don't have sharp eyesight anymore that's required for lighter threads. I too have avoided WW1 aircraft due to the issues with rigging but after seeing this I am definitely tempted to build one now. Awesome work mate!

[@robertmayott5835]

Great job, Andy. I love the build and the subject. More WWI !! Thanks.

[@peterdelaforce2346]

Superb really enjoyed it

[@gunstanksplanes9001]

Wow Andy! That a fun build to watch. Glad I’m not alone when it comes to rigging. I guess a lot of modelers have that one WWI airplane sitting in their stash. Be awhile until I build again, as I’m moving....closer to Andy’s Hobby Headquarters! See you in the near future.

I gotta do that. Beautiful build!

[@richardfabrizio8998]

Oh man didn’t realize that the plane were those colors. Always thought it was all red. Superb build as always. Now if we could get a figure of the Red Baron and put him in the cockpit where he belongs we’d really be set

[@GahMehGrrrr]

Beautiful job

[@eclipsehorse8693]

wooow amazing work Andy! This is totally museum quality! Wonderful subject matter- you don't see a lot of WWI aircraft kits. Wingnut has just really outdone themselves in terms of detail and quality, the engine alone could be it's own kit! Thanks for the tip about the elastic thread, This will definately make it a lot easier for anyone wanting to tackle a classic warbird like this! :)

A really great build Andy. I've built several WW1 planes back when I was a kid. The Spad XIII, the camel and triplane. Rigged em all. Now I doubt my eyes would allow me to do that. Lol. Great job.

[@dtmjax5612]

Great job Andy. I’m a huge Wingnut Wings fan. I’ve completed two kits but I have this one and about 20 others on the shelf...screw the kids inheritance! 😆

[@timraines4972]

Sweeeeeet! You must have the patience of a saint, for all that rigging. Would love to see the tri wing being built

[@reconranger1370]

Hey Andy, I really like the video and great job on the build. The rigging looks great and good job on mixing the yellow paint for the fuselage, that looks really nice. Thanks and I'll see you soon. Joe!!

Looks awesome to me much better than I could do and the rigging looks great to me as well, I would be proud to display that in my house if I had built it..

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

Great build. Last time i did a WWI plane was in the '60's it was a Revell SPAD and a Fokker Tri wing. These Wing Nut kits look great I might have to build one.

[@bigchef2112]

Excellent work. Awesome kits. No a plane builder, but I want to do one of these.

[@jonnypalmberg8351]

A really nice build. I really enjoy these WW I airmachines...Right now I', building my first Albatros D.II in 1:72 scale from Roden...I met some difficulties and really don't appreciate the manual so I decided that I will build another one in a bigger scale next time...I love those Albatrosses. And as a fan of von Richthofen, every model he flew must be a fun one to build. But you can't argue on it...The Fokker Dr.1 says it all...!!!
