My whole fleet basically features bright color catalog paint jobs, so I went a little more vintage this time.
I found a pic of an Albatross biplane with flying circus livery and attempted to copy it as best I could.
It's still a work in progress, but I'm getting closer and intend to fly it soon.
Drei Maxxx ... now that my friend, is awesome! Excellent job with the decals too Erik.
