1/32 Horten Ho 229 - Zoukei-mura

Post by Thomas_M »

Some first pictures of my latest build. I had some tremendous support by my wife Heidi! :wub:

I decided to do these pictures together with my Junkers Ju 88A-1 to give you an image about the Horten´s size. I will post some more pictures later when time permits, and will also do a WIP on this build here on SPAModeler.

Enough words, here we go! Click the pictures to see them large!

:yikes:

So you little rascal hidin' for the last few weeks in your top secret, subsurface construction plant called Bad Wurzach and working on this "last second war winner"?! :nono:

Coool!

Exhausting work when the dead line sits under your bench trying to bite you in your... airbrush hose, isn't it?
Fantastic work, Thomas! Looking forward to your WIP! Can you keep the model for yourself or is it going to be shipped to japan?
Cheers,
Torben

Awesome! Is this the same kit as the one I've seen with all clear fuselage parts?
It's up to you how much money you want to spend and how many new words you want to create "correcting" something.

Yes, the deadline gave some pressure to our work. Wished I had at least one more month but now I am glad I got a 'presentable' finish... ;)

The finished kit is not going to Japan, but the build is going to be published in the Concept Note book on the Horten.

Exactly! This is the finished build of the kit that the customers get with transparent parts.

Most excellent work, Thomas!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
