David Mooney Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) Hello all, I hope everyone is keeping safe in these crazy times. While I have been off due to this enforced lockdown I started the Trumpeter ME262 A-1a heavy armament kit and wanted to do it in the colours of yellow 3 from KG(J)54. The kit decals seemed a big 'off' so I invested in Eagalcals #95-32 sheet and the colours seemed much better than the kit originals. I have been my best to get the scheme right, but even I will admit that its not quite right, but I think it looks pretty good, certainly a good learning session for sure. Painted with Gunze Sanyo (best paints EVER in my opinion) and weathered with oils. I'd like to add that the markings aren't symmetrical as that's the way they are on the original aircraft (very odd that) All comments welcome Edited June 5, 2020 by David Mooney missed a comment out turbo, nmayhew, LSP_Kevin and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dany Boy Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I like the diorama very much Some of Ukraine’s ICM and MB 1:35 figures are looking almost in scale 1:32, if you compare them to Japanese (Tamiya’s) 1:35 figures standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
