A TALE OF TWO KOMETS-PART DREI

[andyh59]

Final part!! Not quite aircraft but related.

I had in my stash the CMK 1/48 resin Scheuch-Schlepper ( tractor for moving and recovering the Me163) which I of course had to build to accompany my 163 builds.

Then Gaspatch had to release their 3D printed Scheuch-Schlepper to accompany their 163. So never having built a full 3D printed kit off went my order to Gaspatch And this turned up :-

 

 

There's actually another layer underneath this one!!

First the CMK kit this was not a terribly easy build and to my mind didn't turn out too well (the figure is not included in the kit)

 

 

 

 

The Gaspatch 3D kit is not an easy build, every part requires to have its 'sprue??' removed, although I managed to do nearly all of this with a new scalpel blade. 'Super glue' is used through out the construction, the detail on this kit is brilliant and leaves the CMK kit way behind. Again the advances in this hobby are amazing and well done to Gaspatch for this first 'mass produced' 3D printed kit:-

The figure is included with the Gaspatch kit, although quiet expensive the Gaspatch kit is the outright winner in this comparison of Scheuch-Schleppers,
