ICM - 1/48 He 111H-16


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

This it is my recently finished He 111H-16 (German bomber), scale 1/48. The ICM kit (No48263) it was pretty good I can say. The model is brush painted and the colors used were a mix of Tamiya and Vallejo Model Air.

Marking: He 111H-16, 5./KG 4, Eastern Front, Winter 1942-1943.

 

Small description from the instructions:

In the beginning of 30s It was appeared in the world an idea of high-speed bomber that could outstrip contemporary fighters. One of the objectifications of this conception became the twin-engine bomber He 111 designed by German Heinkel Flugzeugwerke AG company.

Since the December of 1942 it were produced He 111H-16 planes with liquid-cooled Jumo 211F-2 engines of increased power, with VS wooden wider horde propellers and more powerful armament. This variant could carry up to 3000 kg bombs internally and externally,

The He 111H-16 was the last mass produced variant of Heinkel's medium bomber. It were produced approximately 1155 aircraft up to the end of 1943. He 111H-16s saw service on all fronts as night bombers, transports and glider tugs.

 

I hope you like it and thanks for watching!

Excellent result, especially when considering it is brush painted.

How was the fit of the kit? I am going to built one soon, are there any issues?

Fantastic Andrei!  You did an amazing job!  Looks better than the ICM He111 I am building now!  I always stay away from winter white, but you did it masterfully!

 

I had some fit issues, mostly it was good...
