Hi to all,
after several weeks without any modeling project I finished Meng's Komet. It's completely build OOB. The wing roots needed some filler and the rocket engine was a little bit fiddly. It went together very well and you get a lot of details. Painting was done with Tamiya Acrylics. Thanks for stopping by.
best regards ro

Thank you all for stopping by and leaving your comments. By the way the pattern of rubber tires look not right, there is an option with wonderful resin ones from Barracuda.
best regards ro

Robert,
Just a rock solid OOB. Perfect camo paint scheme and decaling. It's basics 1st, and you just plain nailed it. Well done.

A very good representation of the Komet. Gives me some inspiration to build my Has version.
