Title: Me 462 storm crow ( Sturmkrähe )
Post by: killnoizer on December 19, 2022, 04:26:26 AM
It is my first plastic Model since over 20 years or so ...

Made in 1:72 from a very shitty old Revell and a betterHasegawa kit . Next time i will use twice the same basic model , the differences are very great .

That is certainly a different take on the 262 Family

Nice work

Nice concept. It reminds me of the early dual podded Ar 234 (although that used four BMW003s:

The "recent" (1997) Revell of Germany Me-262 kits (https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-04119-messerschmitt-me-262-a-1a--123487) are pretty good.

How about using four of the B-47 outboard jets ?

... can't get enough kits for that.  Try to catch some more, second hand+cheap , just for fun.

Another 262 in Progress, Wings are from a 747 Jumbo Jet in 1:144 , also the engines .
