This is the more powerful version of the Messerschmitt . Made it from vintage Revell/ Hasegawa kits , was a mistake, it should be better to use twice the same Modell . My first build for nearly 30 years .

Well pretty good going after a 30 year gap

Welcome back to the fold

Kit should like it - it has longer wings!

mexchiwa · January 02, 2023, 06:47:57 AM

Like an Ar-234C

Beats out the XF-87 for best (only?) four-engined jet fighter

I like the look of the wide wings , thougt about shorten them , but decide to keep them .

Here is another design with V-shaped wings ...

Shorten them? SHORTEN them?

Such heresy................

Dizzyfugu · January 02, 2023, 10:18:30 AM

That's looking good, too, even though the engines are a bit odd?

30 yrs is a pretty good gap but it don't look like ya lost any skills going by this build..yup this very cool

Welcome back! A great re-boot!

killnoizer · January 02, 2023, 12:30:39 PM

TOPHE !

Grrrrrrrr .... I hate all of this stupid Z versions ( Zwillinge in German = Twins ) but would be happy to have some photoshop knowledge like you !

The wings of the 2. one are from a 747 in unknown size , cutted .

Unfortunately I do not have my giant collection of spare parts from the 70's , so we have started collecting kits again
( me + my wife ) . Other than in Germany I can see here a lot of very well made whatif conversions , I am impressed.

Great jobs both of the Messerschmitts. Good to have you back!

killnoizer · January 03, 2023, 01:29:42 PM

Now it got a little color , light grey for a nightfighter like camo . Next is a clear coating for the decals .
