My completely knackered looking ME262

Post by CJSomerset »

It's a Hobby Boss 1/48 and I was going for a VERY old and worn out look……

Great weathering and detail in the wheel wells, how did you get the rivits to stand out?

I found some old Black artists oil colours in my kids art box and used it to make a very diluted pin wash.

That looks great Cj, a 262 with real character :) I love how you've done the undercarriage bays and that pin wash is great. It probably looks a bit like the 262s that were flown back to RAE Farnborough after the war (for evaluation). Very well done :clap: :th:

This little soldier has done its duty. Stunning work. Just seeing this sitting in a bomb out airfield 45. Great weathering! :clap:
