1/32 Zoukei Mura Ho-229 Opus 2 Number 1
Here's my almost nearly completed 1/32 Zoukei-Mura SWS Ho-229. This thing has taken me months to complete, but the work was worth it. I highly recommend this kit to more experienced modellers. I painted it with Tamiya, Mr Hobby, AK, [...]
Painting wood panels on the Zoukei-Mura 1/32 Ho-229

Horten Ho 229 “naked”

It was fun because I was able to have a go again at the desert camouflage, this time using the correct RLM 80 Olive Green colour over the RLM 79.
The canopy was the worst fitting part of the kit, leaving a huge gap at the [...]
The Ho-229 Display Stand
After I finished my Z-M Ho-229, I realized there was something missing. I thought that the pieces that didn't go on the final model needed to be displayed separtely. So, I built this little stand to hold the top of the wing, body, nose, [...]
Ho-229 at the Air and Space Museum
I just heard today that the Smithsonian Air and Space museum will pursue putting my Ho-229 on display at the Udvar-Hazy center alongside the real one. Can't express how thrilled I am. They're not sure when it will be put up because they [...]
