Well, I came across this GB by accident - I was confused by the dates, as I think others were, anyway I'll chip in with this..............

Not really sure when I'll start, as I have a queue forming at my bench..............

This isn't admissible for this GB, as I'd started this a while ago, to use as a test piece, for my new 0.2mm airbrush ( from the SMS ), and to attempt to use it for mottling - beats a bit of sponge in tweezers, one of the old school mottling methods.[ATTACH]318279[/ATTACH]
This is the HobbyBoss Ta 152 C-11, in 1/48. You can pick this up for a good price - which is why I chose it as a test piece!. Better to make a rickets on the cheap model, than the expensive ( for me! ) Eduard boxing. - I may not even finish this......
The airbrush works well, spraying at 1bar, I used MiG RLM 81 & 82 over RLM 76 - sprayed without thinning which just about worked, the 82 could have had a few drops of water added, but managed to finish. It needs a very light touch on the trigger, and using the needle lift stop is a great help - but more practice is needed.............

I think the only kit trumpeter nailed was their 1/32 Me 262A-1a. Got one in the stash with a BIG ED set and it looks so good

I agree the Trumpy Me262 is a good kit but they have brought out some other superb kits as well. I would include their Dauntless, Avenger, Swordfish and Yak3 as outstanding as well.

If nobody minds, I’ll add this one to the FW flight line when completed:
