Fuad Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Hi, folks! Let me present to you my new model. I desided to rest little bit and builded this simple model. This is full "what if" version. Prototype of He-280 could be the first serial jet fighter of WWII, but it was Me-262. Because He-280 proved more difficult and expensive to manufacture.

JOCKNEY Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Good evening Fuad Well I have to say I'm a bit disappointed, I think you have taken nearly a week to do this one to perfection you must be slipping ! Amazing stuff as ever old mate. In the subject of the Me262 being easier and cheaper to build I read that it was because the Luftwaffe decided that Messerschmitt would be seen as the fighter producer and Heinkel would concentrate on bombers instead. The He280 was ready a long time before the Me262 got its act together, it's another one of the what ifs... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan B Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Another very fine model you have there. How did it go together, any fit issues we should know about? Duncan B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuad Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 Another very fine model you have there. How did it go together, any fit issues we should know about? Duncan B Plastic molded by casting technology of low pressure. If you are familiar with the products of this technology, then you are nothing new in this model. Some seam lines of panels are slightly, the set has no any photoetched parts. I added some details from the resin kit of "Jumo-004Ð’-1" engines from CMK. Seat belts are also made from cigarette paper and thin wire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuad Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 I love the hangar backdrop. Is that a printed out backdrop? Yes, this background is then printed and pasted on thick cardboard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
