Thanks guys ! More pics....
The canopy without the protection masks.
I did this home made 'tissue' to represent a maintenance environment.
Main canopy parts glued in diferent positions. Antennas were glued too. Still need to paint the 'ring' antenna.
Close on the Canopy:
PE antenna glued on the underside:
I'm fixing some of the holes of the engine structure.
Cheers Pierre.

Hi, Pierre!
Very nice Me-262. Do you plan a diorama to go with it?
I really like the way you've weathered the aircraft and i would like to ask you for some photos of the underside as I've always found that the black is the most difficult color to work with.
Cheers,
Dimitar

Hi Dimitar, thanks for your message !
Yes I will do a diorama, I still need to find some pics to decide what to do on this diorama....
I will post more pics of the underside, just need to be at home to do that. I can say about the underside I used the NATO BLACK from tamiya as a base, then I used a pure black on the panel lines. WASH was done using promodeller BROWN.
Cheers Pierre.

Thanks for your reply!
I'll try it on my night Me-262 when I get to it, and I hope it'll be soon.
Waiting for the dio!
All the best,
Dimitar
