From Wikipedia:

"

Early in 1945, a Blohm & Voss (B&V) aircraft designer called Thieme began work on Drawing Number Ae 607, within the standard drawing numbering system at B&V. His design for a jet fighter was radically different from anything that B&V had done before. A flying wing, it approximated to a 45° delta planform.[1][2]

Reports of its existence were not confirmed until 2017, when the drawing was published. No Project number is recorded for the design and its intended status is unknown"

 

Hmm,,, The "what if" schemes should be then maybe dated " 2017" rather then "1946" ;)

That second scheme has got to be super hard to do, especially in 1/72 scale!

Possibly. However, there may be solution. Paper cake wrappers. The ones with the lace design.

carefully placed and painted over.

Going to give it a try on an old paint mule.

I don't use an airbrush but, I guess I could use a rattle can if paintbrushing doesn't work

No "AZ models" does not know about this!

 

B.w. as I think the view from the cockpit on landing is so "magnificent" that it is unlikely to land on the airfield even in the afternoon.
