loloskymaster Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Hi dear Britmodellers! Here is my last build, a Do-335 in 1/48 scale from Tamiya. This kit was a gift from a friend and as I am not a fan of german WWII aircrafts, I decided to go for a what if. My story: April 1945, a german Do-335 was short petrol and landed in Luxembourg-Findel airport. The luxembourgish recovered the plane and have fight with the americans in the Korean war and later in VietNam. The US General Patton who died has his grave in Luxembourg and had a son, W. T. Patton who was the pilot of the A-335. The kit was painted with MrPaint SEA colors and weathered with oil paints and several other technics. I hope that you will like my build. It was fun to turn this german Do-335 into a what if. Lolo Edited July 9, 2021 by loloskymaster 66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

28ZComeback Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I love it!!! What other schemes did you toy around with? Maybe an Israeli scheme or a North Korean bird in bare metal? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelh Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Not a fan of WIFS but that is compellingly almost real. Plus it's beautifully built. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard E Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 That's impressive and quite credible - a very beefed up SPAD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerbob Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 That is just... weird. And in some strange way, works! bob p.s. I immediately starting thinking about a single-seater, with "modernized" canopy, etc... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 That's a very unusual and clever idea, it really works. Would have made an excellent COIN aircraft in retrospect. Really well done 👏👏👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
