I was given the 32 HKM Gloster Meteor by a good friend on mine and I had to just break it out and slap it together.
The kit went together fairly well with out too much problem. The detail in the office is fairly sparse I think and looking for am proved fruitless for now, some new stuff coming out this coming year.

All in all it is not a bad kit and begs for the modeler with AMS. I would compare the difficulty with an earlier Revell or Monogram kit as far as parts count and assembly goes.

I don't know if I showed the 262 that I was working on while the P-26 was on the bench also. This is the Tamiya Me 262 with the Kettenkrad and three figures. Its a real fun kit and I whiffed the camo so don't be too critical of it.

And last but not least the P-26 was a failure in the end because of the decals and their fragility. I don't at this point remember if I have posted finish pics or not but here are some more.

Any way I sure hope you enjoy the pics. Right now I have another six or yen kits going on at the moment so Ill be back on them soon.']
Cheers.

Paul the Meteor and the 262 look awesome. You still did a nice job on the P-26 too.

Hey, Paul! These three are terrific. Like the meteor - and the pea shooter is pretty cool. The 262 is not too shabby, either....Well done.

"Nothing spectacular" he says... My wife thinks it is spectacular any time I finish a kit, she still the whole stash is going to be build ... :lol: ;)

Anyway, I like that meteor, nice subtle shading on the panel lines. The motteling on the Me-262 looks good to.
And what is wrong which that peashooter? I would be very happy with such a model.
