Thank you guys. It was a joy to build this one. Nice details and a lot of small parts 😉 Two problems: the fitting of the engines on the wings require extra attention and the bent steel tube under the tail breaks when you take it from the sprue: it's so delicate. I would recommend to complete the wings first before glueing the to the fuselage, or you wlll experience problems when painting the fuselage near the wings, the inside of the engine gondola's and the weeldoors.

Arado Ar 234C-3 Blitz, Bomber & reconnaissance plane
III./EKG 1 (KG 76), Alt Lönnewitz (Brandenburg), Germany, March - May 1945
Since I dislike "what ifs"I gave the parasite fighter to someone who does like them. I did a lot of research on the C-3 and substantial information was hard to find about this plane at the closing of WWII.
The aircraft portrays one of the three C-3's that were delivered to III. Gruppe des Einsatzkampfgeschwaders 1 ( III./EKG 1, part of KG 76) on 27th of March 1945. It was blown up by the Germans, just before Americans overran the place in May.
I didn't apply the splinter-scheme suggested by Revell, nor the Dragon one, but based it on the scheme in the marvellous book "Luftwaffe Colours 1935-1945" van Michael Ullman (Otringham, UK, 2002, p. 137). Unfortunately, the swastika decal from Xtradecal fell apart when I took it from the water.
