As soon as ZM announced they would be releasing their Ta152H in 1/48 I couldn't wait to get my hands on one after seeing how well their original 1/32 built up. This isn't won't be a true work in progress thread as I've already reached the stage, almost of getting some paint on it, but I've been taking a few pics as I've moved along so I thought I'd share them on here. When I first opened up the box and viewed the contents I was quite disappointed with the quality of the moulding and I think that will be apparent in the pics to come. Instead of starting with the cockpit I thought I'd get the wing assembly done and out of the way first as this looked the most demanding part of the build. The wings are made up from 8 parts. First job wing spar, lower wings and lower central section. When I dry fit the upper wings I noticed a gap where the outer wing tips met the lower wing so that was filled with a strip of Evergeen. The upper wing leading edges are made from 2 inserts. These fit well on the upper wings but not so good where they wrapped round to the lower wing. Some filler was needed, The finished wing. The whole assembly was made difficult by the lack of any real positive connecting lugs/points which made dry fitted of parts a nightmare. More later, comments welcome. Tim.
