Howard Moon Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Messerschmitt Me 262 A - 1a "Yellow 2" 3/KG(J) 54, Ruzyne 1945 Hobby Boss 1/48th Last year was a very quiet year for me modelling wise and am determined 2014 will see me start to clear some of the stash. Having said that, it hasn't been a good start as I have been suffering with a herniated disc in my neck which has made modelling quite painful. My first effort for this year is Hobby Boss's vice free kit of the Me 262 A. Although the panel line and rivet detail isn't really appropriate, it is nicely done. I built it OOB except for some lead wire brake lines and EZ Line antenna wire. Paints were my usual choice of Gunze Mr Hobby Colour and decals came from Eagle Cals: Thanks for looking and look forward to your comments. In the meantime, I am off to go and get rid of that dust!!

Bill Bunting Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Well done! Great choice for a colour scheme and I really like the "dull" -ness of the finish. Not that the model is dull in any way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
