You'll have to bear
with me on this, as after a two years of building models and looking
through ARC, I've finally decided to submit one of my own models for scrutiny;

The history of this
aircraft has been covered by numerous people, suffice to say the aircraft I chose to cover was captured by the British towards the end of the war at Leck.
The kit is what you'd expect for a Tamiya offering (yes, it's like building
Lego), the decals came from the Cutting Edge set.
The seatbelts, and
seat came from a photo-etch set for the Dragon kit. Vallejo
Model Air acrylics were used to paint the kit, and after a coat of Klear, the
decals were applied using Micro Sol and Set. Then the kit was weathered
with artists oil paints mixed with white spirits.
