Man! If that doesn't look interesting, I don't know what does.

Thanks for the compliments. I am happy to be able to show some progress in the build. Since this is a wooden aircraft I am not going to do a lot of washes, chipping or other weathering so this build should be on a fast track to finishing!

I picked out some decals from the spares box yesterday. A interesting task, which Balkenkreuze to use? Where to put registration numbers? etc.

I looked on Internet how others do this with their Ho-229's but most just skip registration numbers...now there's an easy way out. However, I think that even in a fictional universe the Germans would have everything properly registered....

And the decals are on! It has become red 7:





The decals come from different sources. Some are silvering and need more Microsol. Others are doing great...

That is stunning.

[BorgR3mc0]

That is stunning.

Thanks! The decals need some more setting solution, just look at those cirkels on the top.

Then a flat coat and detail painting (primarly the enigines) and maybe some shading using pastels.

I picked up a little he162 kit, so add me down for that one as well.

Its Dragon/DML 1/72 volksjager

Borg, you really got something out of this kit! PM kits are not all that hot. Looking forward to seeing the final result.
