GregWise Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 finished last week just in time for the Orlando Modelpoloosa. I used the 1/48 tamiya kit plus resin aftermarket and basic scratch building fundamentals.

ghodges Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Such a swell Swallow! Looks like your usual outstanding "crisp" work Greg! What areas are aftermarket and what areas did you enhance with your own stuff? Thanks for posting! GIL
ewahl Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Hi, Greg, Your Me-262 looks great. Your extra details make it even more impressive. I wish I knew enough about aircraft to get your results. Looking at your photos, it looks like the model is in focus, but the images in the mirror are not. Interesting technique. Then I realized you see TWO slightly out of register reflections on the mirror. The first is on the top surface of the glass and the second comes from the silvered bottom. The top one is faint and looks like a shadow of the bottom one, hence a "blurred" reflection. Ed
Wildcat Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 Greg, Another of your great builds. Was good to see you guys at the Orlando show. Michael

GIL I used the Aires wheel-bays and cockpit, The Quick boost engine (undersized nightmare) and a beat set of Aires slats.. all the slide arms were busted off I filed out all the notches and replaced them with scratch made ones. the pitot tube was fashioned from hypo needles. Decals from spares folder.
