Description

This is a full-color 1:144 3D print of the Albatros D.III of Leutnant Karl Allmenröder of Jasta 11.    Before joining the air service, he served in a field artillery regiment.  In 1916 he and his brother Willi volunteered for pilot training, and they both transferred to Jasta 11, where he earned 30 air victories in just a few months.  He fell in combat in June 1917.  Special thanks to OldGuy59 at wingsofwar.org for his contributions to this paint scheme.  The red paint used was not completely opaque, so you can still make out some of the former markings under the red.

No painting is necessary — this model comes printed in full color, ready to use.  It comes with an integral flight peg for mounting on game flight stands (not included), which can be carefully removed with a cutting tool, if desired.  The peg is designed for a fairly tight fit; you can file it down slightly if you prefer a looser fit.  The model does not come with a flight stand, maneuver deck, or plane card.  You can find an unofficial plane card for this plane in this paint scheme in the gallery above or  at https://linen.miraheze.org/wiki/File:AlbD3-Allmenroder-card.jpg.
