Description
This is a full-color 1:144 3D print of the Albatros D.I (385/16?) of Leutnant Diether Collin of Jasta 2. This plane was originally delivered in varnished-plywood finish, but Collin had its fuselage painted yellow. In a later time, the plane was repainted in light green, including the upper wings. Collin scored two victories with Jasta 2 before being transferred back to Jasta 22 (where he had begun) and later Jasta 56. In August 1918 he was wounded in the calf by a Belgian fighter during a balloon attack, and blood poisoning from the phosphorus in the incendiary ammunition led to his death in the hospital on the same day. He had scored thirteen air victories in his career.
No painting is necessary — this model comes printed in full color, ready to use. 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 on this page.

Shipping: Shipping varies from about US$7 to US$15 per order, depending on the destination country. See your cart for an exact number — the prices may vary with currency fluctuations. Orders over US$300 may get free shipping (but see the note on mixed materials).
Mixed Materials: Nylon prints are shipped from a different factory than resin prints, so if you place an order with a mix of Nylon and Resin, you will be charged shipping for each material, and each will arrive separately.
Taxes: Sales tax — where applicable — will be added for U.S. shipments. Value-added taxes (VAT) may (or may not) be collected by your postal carrier on receipt, which is known as “Delivery At Place”. Unfortunately, since my printing and shipping partner has no way of marking shipments as VAT-paid, this website cannot collect VAT on your behalf.
Customs: Most orders should be small enough to avoid customs duties, but you may want to check your local regulations. If duties are due, they may be collected by your postal carrier. E.U. customers may be able to avoid duties by keeping their order under €150.
