Daniel KlinkWhile waiting for colors for the He 177 and still no Hangar for the emily, i stumbled over this neat little thing in my stash

Daniel KlinkWelcome mates!
This will become a real mess🙂
The fit is not the best but this thing will be done👍

Daniel KlinkAfter 2,5hours of sanding, filling and sculpting (Mainly Vallejo putty and Green Stuff used) an airplane
becomes visible.
And when you take a closer look, you will se that it has not that much in common with a 262 as first thought.

Daniel KlinkGround color added.
I decided for the paint scheme behind the kit. The black engine cover undersides looking very attractive in my opinion.

Daniel KlinkHi Sebastian, welcome to the how not to show 🙂
Vallejo on Gunze Hobby Acrylics does not work 🙁🙁🙁 👎
Peeling off more than it should and the dark preshading disappears out of the panel-lines...

Daniel KlinkHi Sebastian.. yap very surprising for me cause i worked with Vallejo over Gunze before and never had this issues.. I will try to correct it with very careful and thinly applied postshading after a coat of Aqua gloss..

Daniel KlinkAnd part 2 from that point of view it really looks like a smaller 262

Daniel KlinkReally never experienced something like that with colors before.
Peeling yes but noth that exactly the preshaded panelines and small areas will turn white after applying the
Second darker coat of color. And nothing of postshading or washes stays in panellines ???
Anyway, i will sell it as worn and weathered look 🙂

Sebastian MeynerI think you got it fixed nicely Daniel! No need to 'sell' it as worn and weathered, since that's exactly what it looks like 😉 👍

Daniel KlinkThanky you mates for your encouraging words. 👍
Just a few steps to finish this
14 October 2020, 21:26
Greg BakerOh, I LIKE this one! Of course, I liked the last one... and the one before that... and the one before that too...
15 October 2020, 13:29
Daniel KlinkThank you all mates for your heartwarming and encouraging words... Much appreciated.. 👍

Łukasz GlińskiReally nice, some say the first 2-seater example was partially assembled on VP/VJ day, so half-whif for me😉 👍

Daniel KlinkThank you Lukasz, Neuling, Guy and Andy...much appreciated your kind words...👍
@Andy Because I got no damp or fog in my hobby room 🙂

CuajeteVery nice, Daniel... It has to look very good together with the single-seater version Kikka's and also with the Me-262's single-seater and two-seater.
Congrats!

Daniel KlinkThank you Cuajete and Mirko..
@Cuajete yap thats a fabulous idea. got the singleseater too and the Me 262 by Academy
5 December 2020, 20:28
CuajeteFantastic, Daniel 👍... I have a Me-262 from Academy (combo box with P-51D), but recently I bought the new one from Airfix... Do you think the one from Academy is better? (sorry for the off-topic).
6 December 2020, 20:16
Daniel KlinkHi mate.. hm i think in terms of prototypically i think the Airfix is more accurate but, from earlier experiences with academy kits i woul say they are going nicer and smoother together.
Pro Academy: general mould quality and fit
Po Airfix: more details and more historical accuracy
6 December 2020, 21:55
Daniel KlinkHi mate, the Airfix A-2a is arriving soon , so i can compare them
29 December 2020, 23:20
Daniel Klinkhm yap noses a bit alike. Iam flirting with a quadruple built.
Revells A-1a, Academys A-2, Airfix' A-2A and finally AzM Single Seater Kikka.
Cuajete is to blame 🙂
"It has to look very good together with the single-seater version Kikka's and also with the Me-262's single-seater and two-seater." he wrote above 🙂

Łukasz GlińskiHmmm, got the Airfix single-seater and fetched the Hataka set for it lately. The radar-equipped double-seater is still in the concept phase😉
30 December 2020, 21:18
Daniel KlinkThanks Erik, glad you lik it 👍
Yap Lukasz very cool 👍
hm How can i o a official GB with this?
31 December 2020, 18:23
Łukasz Gliński@Daniel: Not sure we need an official one, or just a mini edition (like you Greif).
@Cuajete: Degreasing commenced!😉
31 December 2020, 19:43
Łukasz GlińskiThe event is here: Scalemates Schwalbe Group build 2021 (1. January until 31. December, )
31 December 2020, 19:57
CuajeteI will attend, Łukasz! 🙂 👍
And if 2021 allows it, maybe I can participate with my Academy kit😉

Album info
Little project of a plane that never been built but surely would have been a big surprise..
