1/48 HobbyBoss Ta 152C-11 "What If" JG 1


Recommended Posts

So my Ta152 whiffer is done. The C-11 variant was proposed but never built, so no matter what markings I chose they would have been speculative - I decided to have some fun with it. Scheme is based on the Bf109G-6AS birds of JG 1. I also made a lot of corrections and alterations along the way.

Thinking about a 'Luft 46' build for later this year and found this beauty whilst 'Googling' around (other on-line search engines are available !). Not sure how I missed it first time around, but it's bl**dy superb (IMHO).  Inspiration methinks....
