Since the Japanese eagerly sought licence rights to the Pfiel and got many of the plans and parts I decided to build the what if had the war gone on longer. Base kit is the HK 335 with Eduard PE.

Winston,
That's a very nice start to the cockpit. I especially like how you weathered the seatbelts and shoulder harness.

While I've never been a big fan of "what ifs", I'm intrigued as to how you're going to handle the camo paint scheme.

I thought about that but since I had the PE I didn't want to paint the whole cockpit a different color. Also supposedly many components such as the cockpit at least for the original were sent from Germany. The Sub they were on never made it but one can assume that they would have left the Grey. Anyway its a what if.
