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 [...]
Messerschmitt Jet Bomber: Trimaster Me 262A-2aU2
Following Hitler's outburst when he found out that the new and promising jet aircraft would not be suitable to bomb England, the A2 variant was developed for bombing missions with two bomb racks. Later, a dedicated bomber was designed with [...]
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 [...]
A Review of 2022
This year seems it was a blur. With uncertainty with the pandemic here not here, masks no masks, economy was in disarray, gas sky high especially here in California. The year was cruising along but in April I received a note from the new [...]
Revell 1/32 Messerschmitt Me-262B 1a/U1
Here is my favorite topic, unfortunately limited due to the handful of aircraft produced. The model plastic is nicely engraved and separated control surfaces are provided including slats. However, the model does not offer more details by [...]
1/48 Tamiya Me262-1a
Aftermarket items include Quinta Studio 3D cockpit decals, Wingz slats, Hussar resin wheels and EagleCals # 138 decals. The Quinta set is fantastic, easy to use, much more so than photo etch. The model represents a 262 that operated with [...]
