Hi all!

As there have been a thing going about 262´s, I want to show you mine!

It´s the Trumpy 1/32 kit, and it will be a quite wild scheme on this one. ||)

My kit Is painted and gloss coated, ready for decalling.





This was the very first time i tried mottling the camouflage and post shading on the underside (not very visible on the pic, though).



Please let me know what you think about it!

Cheers!

Hi all!

Now my 262 is dressed for success! :-)

Did all the decalling yesterday, this scheme is really wild!









As I know this aircraft started it´s service life with "Kommando Nowotny", the hard edge dapple on the fin is typical.
Then it was transferred to the "Totenkopf" bomber sqn. before it ended up with JG54, where it served until the war ended and finally was scrapped.
The markings are a mix of all squadrons this aircraft served with, interesting story!

Cheers!
