Ta-152C 'Luft '46'

[ij001]

Just finished...

Built this because I hadn't done a 'What If' for a while and really wanted to reinvigorate my atrophied 'mottling skills' such as they are. In the end I'm quite happy with it, built really easily with no big issues, nice detail straight from the box including a perfect wee etch fret. If you're in to Luft '46 and 1:48 (or even if you aren't), go out and get one of these Hobbyboss Ta152's, they're cheap, easily available and look really nice when they're done.

Not sure what's next for 'What If'ing', maybe the new 1:72 Revell Gripen or another Rafale... Stay tuned, thanks for taking the time to look and or comment, please feel free to say anything at all.

Those are some sharp lines, wonder how she would have fared in the Reno Air races post war.

Get out of my head, Bob !! - that was my second choice, with a cut-down P-47 paddle prop & Bearcat bubble canopy.
