Academy Me 163 Komet 1/72

August 3, 2017 · in Aviation · · 13 · 4.2K

Here comes my in with Eduard Set #SS256 an two Preiser Figures. The little shelter is from Airmodel.de. The kit is easy to build, but has some inaccuracies I discoverd to late. The tube attachment on the left wing is not correct for example. But anyway it was fun to build this little bird. The canopy is selfmade, cause the original was to thick for an presentation in opened position.

hope you like it.

Cheers Andy

  1. Great detail on such a small model.

  2. I absolutely love what you've done with this kit, especially because I know how tiny model it is when completed. And the photo setup is amazing!

  3. Another totally fantastic build, and your photography work is just fabulous also!

  4. Well...I was gonna say the exact same thing Martin did, but he beat me to it (darn time zones). Oh wait a minute, Greg & Julian read my mind as well. 🙂

  5. Great presentation, Andreas.

  6. Thank you guys, allways a pleasure for me. You make my day : )

  7. Great model, great diorama!

  8. Really fine work. Love it!

  9. Andreas, really nicely done, wonderful presentation. I like it !

  10. Looks good Andreas, nicely presented, well done.

  11. Great diorama! This aircraft/Rocket is so unique .
    I wonder how may G’s the pilot took upon take off. The German films of that time demonstrate the incredible climb rate and acceleration.
    I have the Heller one to make. Tanks for this inspriring build !

  12. Been quite some time since you last posted another work on these pages, but the wait was well worth Andreas, your Komet can easily pass for a bigger scale, and I mean bigger as in 1/32. Some photos are just that good as the model itself. Bravo
