Fuse color is a story. Originally I assumed to have Albatros with linen coloured wings and dark "mahagon" style fuselage as depicted at Windsock. Finaly I have discovered that at Albatos Flugzeugwerke was used shelack as protective varnish. So I made it in the same way.
Do you have any photos, drawings etc. how is fixed the machine gun to the observerīs turret?
