I'm going to pull of out this build as this kit is awful and requires deication and extreme attention to detail to make it viable. It certainly isn't inspiring me at the moment, so I'm off to build an Me 163 Komet!

Hi Jim.

Sorry to hear you are pulling out of this build. I agree with you that it is an awful kit, as I said earlier, a real mongrel. It has taken me a lot of time and effort to make it look half decent, I will continue with my build and maybe end up with a respectable looking model.
Good luck with your new project, hope to see pics of it soon.

cheers

Des.

Even though Jim has decided not to continue with his DH-2 build, I have completed mine and thought you might like to see the finished product. Rigging was a bit of a nightmare but it all fell into place eventually.



I hope you like what I did.
