Whoops... How could I miss this one?!
Great job, Thomas!
A truly inspirational build. I'm afraid I'll have to get one for Xmas...
Shhht... What did we learn in school about
Balkenkreuze on
wings and fuselage?
"[...] one bar
always in flight direction!"

You won´t regret it, mate!

I am this happy that I was absolutely free in making my own decisions on how to do this build! So I did it "my way"!

Holy mackerel!
Artistic licence?! How dare you?!
OK. Admittedly, we lost the war.
But we lost it in full compliance with applicable RLM/MU* painting and marking directives.

Gorgeous build sir, and a lot larger machine than I was thinking?

Yes, with the wings on later in the build this kit
really gains in size! But due to its shape it should fit in most of our cabinets!
