jenko Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Still trying to clear the bench but more models keep appearing …… This is the latest … The Tamiya Dornier 335, 2 seater. OOB, but the paint scheme is as it should be not as Tamiya say. No real problems,; what you do realise is just how big it must have been in real life. I did manage to see the Smithsonian one up close and personal some years ago. What an interesting development it could have been. On to the pic's. Please feel free to comment etc. Thanks for looking Dick And a single seat one I made earlier. 40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronKSJ Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 They make a great looking pair! Have to admit it's a plane I know next to nothing about, will have to have a read up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunguska Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Nice! I've often thought about a whiffer with a nose intake and over-under turbojets similar in arrangement to the EE Lightning. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Fantastic build. I must admit it is one of the kits I would like to build myself if I can get my hands on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Keg Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Excellent!!!!! I like the single and twin seater`s on display. Well done!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Law Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Well I got my anteater the other day and was having a look at it last night. I could resist it.and before I new it I had most of the interior together. This really is an excellent easy kit. What colors did you use? I would like to follow your lead on this one. I take it the bottom is RLM76. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it the bottom is RLM76. RLM 81/82 and natural metal for the undersides. Tamiya colours are wrong. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Law Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Thanks Dick. Natural metal might be an issue for me. I will have to think about it carefully. I have the upper colours so that won't be a problem. What metal paint did you use? I have been using Vallejo and never seem to have success with it. I will enjoy doing the simple splinter pattern on this one it will give me a break from the complex Me 262 schemes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Greg, In this case I used Humbrol 27001 flat aluminium with a gloss varnish mist over it for handling purposes. My other port of call is Tamiya flat aluminium. ( I do airbrush) HTH Dick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
