Hi all!
This will be a really fun Campaign, considering how many strange contraptions the Germans dreamed up!
I have not decided yet but this is a good bet;

Other possibilites;
Tamiya/AmTech Ta-183 "Huckebein", 1/48
Revell/Dragon Bachem Natter and launch pad, 1/48
Revell/Dragon Ta-154 Moskito, 1/48
Messerschmitt Me163B Komet, 1/48 or 1/32
Heinkel He-162 "Spatz", 1/48 or 1/32
...and there´s more!
Cheers!
Stefan

A small update, well this weekend I got around a BMD-1 for an armorama campaign and some attention to the TL Jäger:
Just missing is the canopy, wheels, wheel bay doors, antennas.

Thanks !
It's a nice little model, a real gem considering my A-model standard kit.
This morning I worked on the canopy maskings and added the wheels.
Decals seted up on the wheel bay doors too.
Hope to finish it this weekend... workbench is full, too many campaigns and other unfinished projects.. pics soon
