Luftwaffe WWII Combat Vet Jets: 1/48th TriMaster Me 262A-1a Schwalbe

July 21, 2024 · in Aviation · · 8 · 241

Trimaster produced a series of 1/48 scale Luftwaffe subject kits, which had fine surface scribing and were highly detailed with metal parts and photo-etch. They were all notable kits, including this Me262 example.

Despite the fact that a few areas require some extra work, you can get a good end result using this 1/48th TriMaster Me 262A-1a kit. The open gun bays add some interest and the delicate details give the kit a good scale look.

Thanks for looking & good luck on your next build.

  1. The Schwalbe turned out beautifully, @flypastrush

  2. Excellent modelling. I still have a soft spot for the Trimaster kits.

    • Thanks Guy, Yes me too (although they were a bit too pricy for me when they came out originally, having a young family and not much hobby cash and all, they did set a nice example.)

  3. Thanks Greg 🙂
