Matchbox 1/72 Me-262 (PK-21)
This is a 40 year old build that needed a good cleaning and it also needed to complete the painting on the fuselage and engine nacelle's sides. When I built this in 1985, I never applied the mottle paint patterns. I think I gave up on it [...]
Dragon 1/48 Messerschmitt Me 262A-2a
With a considerable effort, the gap in molding quality between Tamiya and Dragon's Schwalbe kits can closed.
Dragon 1/48 Me-262A-1a/U2 (V056)
The model depicts a Messerschmitt jet that was used as a test bed for experiments on the FuG 218 'Neptune' 158-185 Mhz radar set and antennas. The results were later used for the development of the Me 262B night fighter variant.
It was one [...]
Dragon 1/48 Messerschmitt Me 262A-1a/U3 Reconnaissance
A model that I completed a while back that shows signs of aging. I had to repaint the yellowing balkenkreuz. The vinyl tires also eat their way slowly into the wheel rims. Yet, it is one of the prominent 262 in my collection thanks to the [...]

Luftwaffe WWII Combat Vet Jets: 1/48th TriMaster Me 262A-1a Schwalbe
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 [...]
Me 262A - 1960 and 2017 Airfix 1/72 kits
I recently finished a double-build - two 1/72 Me 262A German jet fighters. The reason for the double-build was that I had two kits - a 1960 Airfix kit which I sat on for so long they came out with a much-improved version in 2017, which I [...]
Tamiya Sturmvogel
This is the classic Tamiya Me 262 kit in 1/48. Had started it and a Monogram Schwable way back in 2016. Had wanted to build a plane base at Rheine since I had been TDY at that base when it had F-4F Phantom IIs.
Well hit a few hiccups like [...]
HOBBYBOSS Me262 B-1a/U1
Having almost got my health back (not 100%, but getting there), i decided i'd build this HobbyBoss Me262 nightfighter. Fitment was good, apart from the shaped metal nose weight that needed a little grinding to allow the nose to fit [...]
