I had to wait a little while to get pics of the finished model and here it is.

There were some in-progress pics of this model posted here in a separate thread.

Nice!

Was that a conversion kit Les? I didn't think the 262 was a 3 seater?

Been a heck of a ride backwards wouldn't it?

Thanks guys!

Moon Puppy,
No photoshopping in these images except for converting them to B/W.
I have several different backdrops I use from time to time.

Warren,
This model was built O.O.B. from the Special Hobby kit.
Not exactly sure why this version of the Me 262 nightfighter was designed as a three seater, sadly none of these were actually built before wars end.

That's one I haven't seen built before, nice work as usual

Thanks Gary!
I have had this older Special Hobby kit in my stash for years and had been avoiding building it because of the clunky looking parts it had. The overall fit was not too bad,, although the landing gear legs were pretty bad.

Great shots Les, thanks for sharing these

Thank you Moon Puppy,
Because of the new 'Add File' feature I can now post more pictures without having to go over my limit at the photohosting site I use.

Expect to see more pictures from me than usual. B)

Thank you James!
This was not the best of kits to work with and it shows, my other new Me 262 turned out much better and you will see it in a few days from now.
