Default For anyone who has built an Albatros biplane

Hi JD Hammer, 2 Piece,
I haven't even received the kit yet and here I am wisecracking already.. Sorry.
Thanks for the info. I'll get the book if I can. Just ordered the video.
Something else: Do you know of any DVs in Germany? If so, I could go and take pictures and send them to anyone interested in the US. I just don't know if there are any original or restored ones in German museums.

As far as "overdoing": I wasn't referring to rivets and all. Love rivets! And I love detail! I wouldn't care about the 10' rule either. I am building not for competition (Don't know if I even had a chance) but for my own pleasure and satisfaction. And I tend to judge models from close.
But what I meant was: Making it look better than the real thing. Now that wouldn't be scale, would it?
