Booty003 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 1/72 Revell Arado AR (E) 555-I, I/KG 100, 6N-EK, Luft '46. Here is the fantastic Revell offering of an incredible design by Arado. This was an initiative of the Reichsluftfahrtministerium (Reich Air Ministry), RLM, to obtain a long-range bomber for the Luftwaffe, that would be capable of striking the continental United States from Germany. The first time I saw this kit I knew I had to build it one day. At one stage I had an extensive collection of exotic German aircraft and this kit would of joined them. My collection has been dramatically reduced now so this actually falls out of my collection theme. It still needed finishing though and I am very pleased with how it has turned out. Airbrushed using Vallejo paints, weathered with Flory dark wash and sealed with matte varnish. You don't generally see many of these built up and it was an absolute joy to build. I hope that you enjoy the photos. Cheers guys, Phil 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booty003 Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 Cheers guys, I have a Horten Ho 229 that needs a lick of paint - will probably be in a similar scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomthounaojam Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I have built the same kit during my initial days of scale modelling, a nice kit which I screwed up. Yrs is a really nice rendition of what If aircraft, three cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
