    Thanks chaps.

    Here's a selection of eight photos to give a better idea of the kit. It's very simple but looks a lot like an Me 163 to me. I've resized the images so they shouldn't take too long to load on a decent connection.



    Rear view, not difficult to see why it was nicknamed "Swallow"











    The sharp end, not something you'd want to see if you were the rear gunner in a USAAF bomber.



    And finally our brave or foolhardy (depending on your point of view) pilot.



    Cheers

    Steve

      As I said before a great paint job and finish topped off with a nice set of photos.

        PS I see from the intact propeller that you didn't copy Tony and fly it round your workshop making 'whooosh' noises!

                      Looks great Steve. I hope your builds survived the little people. I remember some problems from the past.................................

                        Thanks chaps.

                        Oh the little people! Everything survived this time. It was the same twins plus a couple of reinforcements........chaos!

                        Cheers

                          Top job as usual Steve.....a nice crisp build.

                          Thanks for the bit of history too.

                            Great build Steve and a nice finish. Contemplating getting this myself now - adding this cracking little rocket aircraft to the 2 german jets Me262 and He162.

                            Your scheme looks really cool and matches the period photographs well.

                            Great job as always
