i got this done about 3 weeks ago, put in the display cabinet, only just realised i hadnt taken any pics of it. i had quite a bit of help with the spraying and colour scheme side of things from you guys, so thanks, BUT! just when i thought i could breathe easy, decal it, and finish up it turned out the decals in the kit were utterly useless, so i raided my bits and bobs box and got something bodged together, not entirely accurate but passable, so i have
tail number- me 262
fusalage code "F8"-FW condor
fusalage code "CM"- BF 110
red stenciling from kit (looks cool)
btw the radar aerials are 5 amp fusewire, put through holes drilled in the kit parts

Looks good, I especially like the radar aerials. As for accuracy the Ar 240 never entered service so i wouldn't worry about it.

Good looking skysteed.

Never cared much for Nachtjaegern until I read THE OTHER BATTLE, about Bomber Command VS the nightfighters. For me, a great blend of story, technical description, and first-person accounts, both sides.

Now I am planning to build my HE-219.
