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 [...]

Another great little Airfix kit. I added Eduard PE to detail the cockpit and used Mission Models paints. It is good kit, but one tricky point is the filler needed to blend in the joins between the wings and engine nacelles.
Hot off the bench.... a 2015 build!
Here is the Eduard Me 262A-1a. Very good little kit, but I couldn't resist adding a bunch of
P-E from the Brengun set for the B model. My eyes have ordered me back to 1/48!
Happy New Year to All!
