Ok I just found this site after surfing for hours HELP !

I have just gotten back into building plastic Model kits with my son. In my younger years I built tons of 1/72 scale Allied WWII kits. A friend of mine who owns a hobby shop is going out of business and loaded me up with a ton of German kits. It being winter and all and me freezing my #$$ off...well I'm digging in for the long haul.....that's my story.
Currently I am building a Revell Arado 240, nice kit needs some extra detail. I can't find any pics of the cockpit, landing gear or legit paint schemes. Any one here have any links or info ?
Any help would be appreciated !

How about the origins of spam, its use, and how it helped Britain to gain such a large empire...

The black nightfighter scheme looks great.
