Restoration Project - He 162

Hey folks, after some absence due military service i am back here. The News are that i was aked to assist a modelbuilder who wants to build 1:1 scale model of a Volksjäger. After some telephone calls he follows my advices. So i came to this job like virgin to a child like we her in germany say. His first impressions especially about camouflage were in my eyes inacceptable, but his 1:1 scale dashboard is ok.

Hope he will sent me some pics of his progress, so i can show here on the Forum.

greets from GE

Thomas
