Getting that level of detail in a 1/48 scale Great War plane is worth the post alone, but the overall result of your Phoenix is just delightful to behold. Well done sir
Great craftsmanship!
One detail though.
When talking about the German Navy of WW1 the names "Kaiserliche Flotte", "Kaiserliche Marine" or "Hochseeflotte" are usually used. The name "Kriegsmarine" is usually used when referring to the German Navy of WW2.
OK, now I see. It's the K.u.K, that is the Imperial Austrian Navy. K.u.K. means "Kaiserliche und Königliche" that is Imperial and Royal, referring to the Emperor of Austria also being king of Hungary.
Anyway, it's less important. The model looks great.
Beautifully detailed and rendered, Carlo. The dark background certainly adds a little atmosphere. Terrific base and pilot, also.
Thank you David. This was my first KUK subject. Pilot is from Plus Model, and all was colored with Vallejo Acrilic.

Hi Ulf thanks for you suggestions. I've take the name from productor's box. I most cases they use "Kriegsmarine".
