ME410 All the Way

[Dave wahl]

This whole thread reminds me of the cartoon-like booklets we got in the Air Force AND the Army designed to get the point across to a bunch of Hormone crazed upper teens into doing the maintenance jobs or other important tasks right. Good job, can't wait for the next installment. I'm just a newby but this stuff is great. :cheer: :cheer:

out of curiosity i googled for me 410 pics maybe you don't know some of them (unlikely)

-> http://www.luftarchiv.de/index.htm?/flugzeuge/messerschmitt/me410.htm (scroll down!)
-> http://www.luftarchiv.de/index.htm?/bordgerate/waffen2.htm (main gun! scroll down!)
(seems to be a good ressource page in general! german not needed, the pics speak for themselves!)

and did you already know this magic site with a me 410 walkaround + links for cockpit details et al:

Wow- thanks, everyone! Jknaus- I second that motion! Any pics of your father's plane? Speaking of pics- thanks, Laura! I have a surprise for you- stay tuned!

Okay, so life and work have been keeping from the bench- but not entirely. Here's a brief update, and if you'd like a larger version of the Fritzi and her kettenkrad go here: http://chukw.com/Fritzikrad.html
Cheers-

Check it out, Chuck is pulling off a Modulation technique on an engine...good stuff as always.

 

[Jenny Croft]

Jenny :kiss:

even your no updates are eyecatchers chuck! :cheer:

i wonder what's in that multicolored box next to fritzi on the floor! your next project maybe?

biiiiiiig hugs and loads of kisses to dynamite!

 

[moon puppy]

Yeah, I"m hopin' Dynamite's bones are behind the tree. We got bunches of toys for our 3 pups and most of them are already torn to shreds. After what Dyno went through this year he deserves a big ol' soup bone, or Dad's slipper...

 

[Viper_MP]

Fritz is an elf!!!! I knew it!! Chuck is using elves to do his work for him. Its all done with magic!!!

 

[chukw]

Wha- who? You guys crack me up! Christmas was great, got the Special Hobby H-21, Dyna got a new bed and lots of goodies. She's right in your face for evry gift that's unwrapped! Marc loves her Wii and Wii Fit- and me? I've got off until next Monday! :woohoo: Well, I've been cranking away for days, so here comes a flood- of tragedy- and triumph! Sometimes I think that none of the parts to this thing actually fit together, even though I know it a great kit. Once you start chopping, it all goes out the window as one tiny flaw can lead to another. Perseverance saves the day, and Fritzi shows you how. As a special present o you, there's a large size version of today's header at chukw.com

 

[Jenny Croft]

Ewww yuck , I like it better with no wings :laugh: :woohoo: !

Hehehe I have a great new screen saver !!!! Thanks Chuck :woohoo: !

It looks like a hard thing putting wings on , tracks are much easier (maybe next project ) .

Jenny :kiss:

 

[Sharkmouth]

AWESOME as always!

Regards,

 

[moon puppy]

Holy wingnuts Batman! Way to stay at it Chuck. I know I would have just left the gaps and filled it in with something, CA, stock 2x4s...anything. Great update Chuck.

And yes Chuck, got no Bananas, he got no bananas for Christmas..Banana Helicopter that is.

 

[Kreighshoer]

what an update! the artwork (read: toons) are great and the artwork (read: assembly progress) is simply stunning! your eye for perfection has an eyesight of 150%!

what a beauty!

 

[chukw]

Oh, Jenny...

Thanks everybody! I actually got a good night's sleep last night. In local IPMS contests I got knocked out twice for misalignment- both the He111 and the Helldiver. The 'Diver was the worst- it came down to it and a nicely-done- but very simple- Hellcat. The judges went over everything until they decided a landing gear door of something was a bit out of line (at least that's what I was told by a knowledgeable insider) . :huh: That's they're rules- don't think I'll enter there any more- it's just silly in my humble opinion.

Anyway- I'm really grateful for all the kind words- they give me the strength to keep pushing on!

Cheers!

[G Cooper]

Well. I like it better WITH the wings on. All five times :duh .

That part reminds me of something I would do . Only I would do it because I broke em off :p . Not because I thought they weren't good enough. This is going to be another one that I don't want to end, cause it is soooo cool the way you do stuff. And Fritzi, Hannah, Pfennig and the gang are just plain fun :cheer: .
