Chris Kethan Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 (edited) It finally quit raining here in Houston long enough for me to go outside and take some pictures of my first entry...a Ta-152 H-1 from Stab/Jg 301. This was the 1/48 Italeri kit (which was a rebox of the Trimaster kit minus the engine and PE fret) built OOB with the addition of PE harnesses and a set of swastikas from the spares box. I screwed up the red and yellow decals, so I masked the ID bands and painted them. The kit wasn't hard to build, but it lacks an engine and that is very visible when you turn the model over and look in the empty wheel well. Next -152 I build will be the Trimaster! On to the next project... The ME-410. Chris Edited October 19, 2006 by Chris Kethan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Wenman Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Chris hi Nice work there. The mottle looks really good, and the JG 301 band always sets a model off Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chuck1945 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I screwed up the red and yellow decals, so I masked the ID bands and painted them. Good job, I think paint Reich Defense bands look better the decals anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Milo Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 That's the crappiest Mustang I've ever seen! It looks just like a Ta 152H!! Just kidding! You did an awesome job! What kind of airbrush did you use? Cheers, Milo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
