I'm currently building a pair of 1/72nd Albatros by Eduard, plus there is a .jpeg of the Russian wallpaper which I used for my recent Stalingrad building, please take a look here on my blog:

You really go all in with the detail on your aircraft. Nice work.
I'm not surprised the Russian wallpaper includes a couple types in green. after seeing all the green paint they like to cover so many of their buildings with. Must be because of all that snow during their eight month winters…

Thanks Rrobby, I sometime wonder why I do it, TBH, you can never see the interior cockpit detail when they are fully built, but I WILL KNOW if I left stuff out…

Yes, the wallpaper patterns are pretty garish, it's not my choice of decoration, snow or not…

I would do as you do with your aircraft if I were inclined to. As you said, You know what effort you put into it.
Thinking further about the wallpaper. It seems to me that once upon a time interior decoration included such wallpaper pretty much all over. That is to say, most homes in 'the West'. This seems to have gone away. Now it seems folks are less interested in colorful wall decoration. More focus being given to what is hanging on the walls. Just a thought…

Yes, that's probably true, things change with time and everything has a vogue, so wallpaper has fallen out of fashion, I guess.
