Internal Vallejo Model Air RLM02. Cockpit ready to go in. Time to position more weights before the fuselage goes together. 🙂

Fuselage together, wings and tail planes added. Working on the jet engines now. So far, everything seems to be fitting together quite reasonably. 🙂

Really nice looking cockpit, Guy. Are you going to tag this project as part of the group build?

I wasn't satisfied with the mottling on the sides, so I did a bit more work on them adding more RLM81 and RLM82. I think I can now move on to the next stage (RLM24 on the nose) 🙂

RLM24 added to nose. Acrylic gloss added, decals and panel wash added. 🙂

Transall NG
Sadly, i missed your work when it started : next time, no extra fuel tank on a single place aircraft, they lacked the necessary circuits. The A-1a variant couldn't, for the same reason, drop bombs or anything else : only A-2a could ! The aircraft used for W.Gr. 21 trials had been specifically modified (two aircraft if memory is correct). Models makers often show things which could not be met in the reality : so did Tamiya with its 1/48 Me 262 kit... but those options can be useful if you have studied the subject. Otherwise nice paint ! Regards.

I'm afraid I built it out of the box following the instructions as provided by Revell. Thanks for the observation Transall NG, it just goes to show that the model manufacturers are not infallible. 👍

Thanks for your interest and like Gustavo S. 👍
