Hi all!

Following my previous post (https://imodeler.com/2025/06/me-262-building-a-lost-bird-part-1-4/) on the Me-262, here's the shelter (and some trees) I built for it, step-by-step.

Hope you like. If you do, keep following 🙂

  1. Well done, Manuel. The 262 will look really good on this "base"

  2. Very impressive shelter, Manuel @magrus
    Looks very realistic and is indeed a perfect base for the 262.

  3. Awesome shelter, Manuel!

  4. Would love to have a tutorial or some more explanations, Manuel @magrus! Looks very realistic.

    • Thks @fxrob. I thought the photos were quite self-explanatory, sorry.
      As a matter of fact, its all quite simple: balsa wood, paint and some static-grass and bushes.
      The trees are made almost the same way.
      But I understand your point and next time will provide a better description. Sorry.

      • Sorry, i did not mean to complain, Manuel @magrus. You are right, the pics about the threes are perfect as an explanation. They look great! I was also wondering about the wood, since i am an absolute beginner with dioramas but think they can add so much!
