ZM Ta 152 H-1 In Progress

Holger Kranich
Oh i love the Ta-152! So i lean back on my seat and watch it grow... Engine Looks great thus far.

David Barclay
Thanks Holger! It is a pretty cool motor..... Really great detail OOB

Patrick Hagelstein
I'm watching this one too! How is the kit construction wise?

David Barclay
Thanks Patrick! The kit really does go together well..... Just need to take your time.... It can be a bit fiddly..... There are certain ways that some things need to go together. But the instruction sheet is very nice and points out all the special assembly process.... Great Great kit! So far no filler has been needed

Thomas Mayer
I am with Holger: great work so far! The engine looks this good, it is hard to tell if it is in 1/32 or 1/48!

David Barclay
Thanks Heaps Thomas!

Michael Phillips
Looking awesome so far David!

Thomas Mayer
This is my 1/32 scale version of your engine. Guess it shows why one could mix both up despite the different scale... 😉

Dale Marston
Metal finish is really nice.

David Barclay
Thanks Dale! I gotta say though... The metal is just a primer coat. Was gonna try some worn effects spray chipping fluid... But chickened out..... All is not lost though..... It is a nice thin layer of paint so the details shouldn't get filled in with the primary paint....

It looks absolutely beautiful in silver (photo 19). Amazing looking build David - very interesting.

David Barclay
Thanks Heaps Gorby! But alas.... Silver is all covered up! Decals are done....

Thomas Mayer
Nice shades and colours on picture 23!

Soeren R.
Great build! The weathering looks perfect.

David Barclay
Thank you Soren!

Thomas Mayer
David, this is a beautiful finish of an exciting airplane!
I am sorry to be late, but maybe you could get the mesh out of the charger intake? I so far never have seen a wartime picture showing such a mesh on a Ta 152 nor a Fw 190D. In my understanding this was installed after capture to prevent birds or debris to get in.

Michael Phillips
That is really looking fantastic man!!!! The chipping and weathering is outstanding.

Lex Jassies
Just plain beautiful!
