Some may have seen those pics from their Japanese website, but we don´t have to simply copy them from there! We get them directly from the HQ by download link! 
Seen here is "da man!" Please welcome Mr Hideyuki Shigeta, owner of Zoukei-mura and the man behind their very special kits. He is a absolutely nice man that I deeply respect since having met him some years ago! He is a caring friend and a wonderful man to talk to!
As you can see the box of the future Horten Ho 229 is ready, work on the assembly manual is in full swing and we also see some sprues on his desk.
Below is a good comparison shot of a CAD drawing of the Horten and a build-up test shot, clearly demonstrating the mass of detail and the intricate construction of the kit´s main fuselage as well as the wing structure.
As usual please click the pictures above to see them full size!
