Move over Buzz, here comes something Meatier!

Post by Fermis »

See what I did there..."meatier"....Meteor...ah nevermind!!! :tease:

Anyway...Tamiya's 1/48 V-1 Buzz bomb.
OOB except for the tiny fuse/prop.
While looking at some refs, I found several that looked like they had been cobbled together from different airframes...I dig it, so I went with it.

And to go along with it...Tamiya's Meteor.
Also OOB, except for seatbelts and I made a brass pitot tube. Excellent kit...but...they give you 3 marking options...

1. YQ D
2. YQ E
3. YQ G
:scream:
All are the exact same, except for that one letter and the tail #s....I don't call that "options"!
Oh, and yea....I HATE Tamiya declals :scream:

Anyway, minimal weathering, just paintwork and a wash.

Very nicely done... As usual ;)

Yes.
I would not have bought it, on it's own...does not interest me enough (the Meteor, that is)...but this kit/kits came as part of a "lot" purchase I made a while back.

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!"..
