    1/48 HobbyBoss Me262 A-1a/U2 (V056)

    Started this last year but as you all know I've been away for ages and not had any chance to do modelling or anything else.

    I never started a build thread of this and as it's nearly finished i'll just post a few of the build pics with a little description.

    Box art



    Decided to do a little scratch building. So I added wires to the gun bay





    Eduard Seatbelts



    Cut the leading edge slats off. will pose them as hanging down



    Cockpit all finished up with Eduard PE



    Joystick control rod added



    Electrical wiring added



    Jumping forward a little. Just about all painted up. Just needing the undercarriage, slats, canopy and aerials



    Undercarriage, canopy, gunbay covers, slats and decals added. Just needs the aerials adding now and it's complete

              I have a 1/24 Hurricane to build and I am tempted to get the Typhoon. But normally I stick to 1/48 and 1/32 kits

                          Depends on how long we get to build. I seriously have to manage my time now due to two kids and shift work. But i'll defo try to

                              Very nice All, this was one of my possible Christmas presents to myself.

                              Ended up going with armour though!

                              Looking forward to seeing the finished result.
