Title: Can you guess what it was
Post by: kpnuts on June 02, 2014, 01:54:18 AM

Hi all this is a GB I have just finished  on another forum what do you think I am not really pleased with it the colour i tried so spray over the black shows on the foil but seems to just keep getting soaked up by the black and (its supposed to be a spaceship but it still looks like a plane to me).

From what I can see I like it, but the cammo is a bit too good! It blends in too well with your background images for me to get a good read on the form!

The front end looks like it was sourced from an armored car kit  of some kind, but beyond that ( and the Hs 293, which could have three or four different origins these days...) I'm in the dark...

Dr yoki you don't know how close you are to the truth.

Looks like most of a Heinkel He 177 for the wings & main fuselage. ???

With a less likely suspect being about 2/3rds of a B-24 wing & the mid-section of the fuselage of same. :-\

The nose is a total mystery. :icon_crap:

You are correct although there is no other plane involved but there was a German halftrack involved
