Description

This is a full-color 1:144 3D print of Albatros D.I D.390/16 of Leutnant Otto Walter Höhne of Jasta 2.  Höhne was one of the original members of Jasta 2, before it was renamed ‘Jasta Boelcke‘ in memory of its fallen leader.  After scoring six victories, he was injured in January 1917, he spent a long time in recovery before assuming command of Jasta 59 for a month in late 1917.  He made a return to Jasta Boelcke as its commander in 1918, but that posting was also brief, with him handing over command to Karle Bolle in February 1918.

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:AlbD1-Hohne-card.jpg.
