This group gave me the idea to make a floatplane version of the Me-262Z, in her different versions:
-
Oh yes!! :icon_fsm:
-
Looks good Tophe......
-
Oh I'm liking these!!!! Is that a glass tail turret on the bottom one???!!! If so, how about a glass nose too! 8)
So what scale will it/they be?
-
Like to kitbash upper right one 8)
Thanks for the concept :)
-
Those are wonderfully imaginative, Tophe!
I think I like the one with three engines and the "double" T-tail best, but they're all incredible concepts, mon ami!

I will not build them, this is just a drawing. And here is the Clifferschmitt B-262W for tourists 1949:

Awww, I'd love to see one or all of these in plastic at least at some point. Maybe further down the road?
Love the Clifferschmitt B-262W, thanks man :)

Now those are thought-provoking Tophe - cheers!
The thought they provoked is what about a flying boat version, made by grafting a second fuselage upside down onto the bottom of the first, and then moving the engines to either an overwing or A-10-style position. Gimme while and I'll knock up a profile of it.
EDIT: here we go, just a quick'n'dirty:

Nice!
And you are right, a Me-262 does not need to be Zwilling to be floating...

Very cool stuff.......
