Academy 1/72 Me 163B-1a Komet

Post by Thumboy »

This is my most recently finished model. With each kit I try to do something I haven't done before. On this one it is the first time I have posed the flaps and rudder and my first attempt at mottling. There are a few things that didn't go quite as well as I wanted but in general I am quite pleased with the outcome.

painted with Tamiya acrylics the underside is XF23 50/50 with flat white and the top is XF10 and XF13.

Thanks for looking

Looks great! The story and history of this aircraft is insanity!

I think the mottling looks spot on.
