HI all
I would like to present a few images of my latest completion. This is the Dragon Me 262 Mistel combination, which has been made more accurate by replacing the standard fighter version of the Me 262 with the glass nosed bomber version from Hobby Boss. I say more accurate, as all the references suggest the use of glass nosed 262 on what is, or is not a hypothetical subject, depending on what books you read.
Adapting the Hobby Boss kit to the Dragon kit presented some challenges, but the biggest challenge was ensuring that both airframes had the same dihedral,as there are subtle differences between the two manufacturers.
I have elected to paint the bottom (drone) 262 in the earlier grey scheme and show it as one that had been relegated to a non-combat role, thereby making it a suitable candidate in the expendable role, while the carrier 262 is finished in the late war greens.
Cheers and thanks for looking
Randy
