Julien Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 This is the 1/48 Hobbyboss kit with Aims decals for White 22 of JG 44 found abandoned at Salzburg at the end of the war. The aircraft did have a collapsed nose wheel but I did not really want to do that so its prior to collapse. I used some life color dust which I was happy with, and some lifecolor water staining which I though was too stark. Its then been weathered with oils. The kit is very nice and builds up well. The nose gun panel is slightly wrong for this aircraft but I can live with that. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
