Tell Barney it is the new 'cool' look of all newly returned former modellers.
I looked like that once, but my hair follicles decided it wasn't for them. Haha.

Good work on spotting and correcting the error.

A really good likeness! Haha

See where you are coming from Chris, although this one is an aggressive beast. Looking great Chris.

Looking wonderful Dave. Envious of your skill and attention to detail.

Hi Bob,
That is a really nice message from Danny. It seems that they really liked the club meeting and were made to feel welcome.
Let's hope that we see them return in the near future.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for taking and posting the pictures. Looks like I missed a great night. Some terrific looking models.

I couldn't possibly comment.......

Nice to see your 'setting' the usual high standard of detail to the project.
Sorry couldn't resist the pun.    

Looking good Chris. How much will be seen on the finished model? Probably quite a bit with all that glazing.
Good progress.

Quote from: cph64 on July 05, 2026, 07:01:13 PMLooking good. Have you seen the cartoon with the dridecker 262 in SAM? Another 'What If' perhaps?

You know Chris, I did actually and thought about perhaps doing one, just need another couple of sets of wings.....
Anyone got spares?

Looking very distinguished.........
Just like you.  

Hi all,
A little more progress on with this one.
I have made a spurious handling trolley to sit the aircraft on. Made out of strip plasticard, and some wheels from the spares box. A test fit showed it lined up okay with float, and the wheels sat nicely in between the main float and engine nacelles.
All ready for the trolley to get an undercoat before painting the scheme probably, RLM 02 Grau.
The canopy has been attached with Kristal Kleer, and as with Trumpeter Me262's the rear section will need a bit of building up with filler to get a smooth transition to the fuselage.
Thanks for looking:-

Now what colour should I do his hair - just like most club members GREY     

Only appropriate for the few members that have hair.........Hahaha   

Quote from: zak on July 03, 2026, 09:04:39 AMI have to put in the setts first, then the overhead...... be patient Chris!

It's just that we are all excited about this project. Nice work Dave.
