I now declare this one completed. I put the final touches on this morning (rigging). The aircraft denoted here was with 1/KG 51 at Memmingen. 🙂

The Messerschmitt Me 410 Hornisse (Hornet) was a German heavy fighter and Schnellbomber used by the Luftwaffe during WW2. Though an incremental improvement of the Me 210, it had a new wing plan, longer fuselage and engines of greater power. The changes were significant enough for the aircraft to be renamed the Me 410. The major change between the Me 210 and 410 was the introduction of the larger (at 44.5 litres, 2,720 cu in displacement) and more powerful Daimler Benz 603A engines. A-series aircraft were armed with two 7.92 mm (.312 in) MG17 machine guns and two 20 mm MG 151/20 cannons in the nose and delivered as the Me 410 A-1 light bomber.

Thanks for your interest and likes mates Palo M, James C & Guillaume B 👍

Rando Dude
Very nice result! 👍
I just noticed, the Hornisse's stubby nose and forward protruding engine nacelles always reminds me a bit of the d.H. Mosquito. Or maybe the other way around. Probably just a coincidence.

Guy Rump
Many thanks for your kind comment Rando Dude. 👍 At first glance I'd agree it doe look a bit like a Mossie. 🙂

Bernhard Pethe
Das Modell sieht sehr schön aus. Aber leider hat Dir keiner rechtzeitig gesagt, das die Hauptfahrwerksbeine falsch herum ein gebaut sind. Die Räder müssen innen stehen. Das kann man bestimmt noch ändern.

Guy Rump
Danke Bernhard für die Beobachtung. Du hast völlig Recht, mein Fehler. Ich werde die Räder neu machen! 👍

Jan Peters
Excellent result Guy 👏👏
