    1st PLACE EXPERT: 1/48 Tamiya Messerschmitt Me 262 A-2a 9K+YH of 1/KG 51

    Messerschmitt Me 262 A-2a 9K+YH of 1/KG 51 based at Rheine Autumn 1944



    User Name: Crimea River
    First Name: Andy
    Category: 1 Advanced
    Scale: 1/48
    Manufacturer: Tamiya
    Type: Messerschmitt Me-262 A-2 with Kettenkrad
    Used OOB decals, added scratch built details and Eduard PE seatbelts.

    Well, here's the final product with the obligatory photos. This was a challenging build as I had not attempted such a complex squiggle pattern camo before with an airbrush. I've learned a lot and know I can do better the next time.

    Thanks to all who took interest in the build and to those who provided detailed references on the subject aircraft.

    I think u've surpassed ur best work Andy, cause this one is just beautiful...

    Do u think u can do a re-do of ur pics, without the base.... Its very nice but distracting, and come judging time, all eyes should be on the kit, not the presentation....
