Hello, ladies and gentlemen! Some time ago I've had to sharpen one of my main modelling instruments, my eyes, and that's why I've decided to build a simple and trouble-free kit in order not to overload them. The PM Model Messerschmitt P.1111 seemed a good choice to me. But despite simplicity, it turned to take a lot of work, though it was not not so complex. I've made some improvements to it. First of all i've had to imitate the ducts. Some parts were built from scratch: landing gear legs, cockpit interior, antennas and exhaust (which, in fact, is from the HobbyBoss F-84 kit). The livery is completely fictional along with its colours. The shades were mixed by myself using artistic acrylic paints. They proved that they are not worse than many of the cheap modelling paints and almost as good as paints from some well known brands. I've also used some Humbrol paints for brush painting. The decals were found in my spares box. The paintwork could be much better and I'll try to do my best next time. Though this is the"paper plane", she has proved it's nice aerodynamics and reliability while flying from my worktable to the floor during the photosession. Only the nose landing gear was broken and quickly repaired with the help of field staff. I enjoyed the build and it inspired me to build one more P.1111, but not exactly the same version. This time it will be the P.1111B (at least I call it so). The other kit is already waiting for some surgery... And, for the end, some of my Luft'46 force (four of them are PM Model kits):
