olympic1911 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Here are some pictures of my HpH Models Messerschmitt ME 410 in 1/32nd scale. It is a multi-media mainly resin kit, it is not Tamiya and I didn't expect it to be. From a cottage industry limited run kit a little trimming, sanding, head-scratching is to be expected but I loved every minute of building. The kit is on the expensive side but looking at the end result it is worth every penny! The surface detail is superb! Thanks for checking in!

olympic1911 Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 18 hours ago, mick b said: Excellent result, must weigh a ton! Mike It isn't really much heavier than an average plastic model kit of the same size. The fin and stabilizers are solid casts but the airframe is hollow, construction is much like building a vac-formes kit. The parts need to be freed from Filller-gates and cleaned up. There is one thing I need to add though: I purchased the kit directly from the manufacturer in the Czech Republik. I messed up one of the decals and sent the company an email if they would sell me a replacement decal sheet. I got a reply asking if the sheet is to be sent to the same address the model was sent to. A few days later a replacement decal sheet landed in my letter-box completely free of charge. The service that HpH offers is really second to none! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Not much on Luftwaffe stuff myself, but this is a machine I've long harbored some curiosity about, and I appreciate a look at your well built and finished model of one. Do you have any WIP pictures of the interior? Welcome to the forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Beautiful result! It's great to see some of these Hph kits being built. I have two and I'm still afraid to try building them...yet! Unusual subject in a big scale, looks beautifully finished. Well done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete The transparencies are from clear resin which is perfect because they can be cleaned with thinners without damaging them.
