Dragon 1/48 Mistel

September 20, 2024 · in Aviation · · 13 · 59

My favorite kit is the Fw 190A-8 and Ju 88G-1 combination. The model depict a Mistel captured by the American forces that was used for training. Hence, the Junkers was piloted without the warhead.

  1. A beautiful Mistel combination, Rafi @blackmopane
    Nice work on that pattern on the nose of the Junker.

  2. That's a really amazing camo paint job on the Ju-88. Really nice work on the whole thing.

  3. Great work - as usual! Interesting camo of the cockpit section. Do you know if this camo was applied to whole aircraft or whole fuselages?

    • Thank you Hans!
      This camo was applied to the rear section of the fuselage as well. Yet, it was painted on different G-1 aircraft. I swopped around the nose sections and it was too complicated to swap back.

  4. Excellent job and supreme painting, Rafi!

  5. Interesting Mistel project, with the conventional nose and the very cool pattern on the nose and rear fuselage. Excellent work!

  6. That is one insanely good paint job. Very impressive and attractive build of a fun WW2 anomaly.

  7. Superb job (again!) Rafi. I've got this kit in my stash as well, I'm going to do it alongside some of the ICM Mistels.
