1/48 scale?

[YakFlyer]

Ta183 (Amtech and Tamiya) and BV141 (HiPM) have been released in 1/48

REALLY?!! Right, research time, must find them. Airframes completely agreed, and lucky: yes an he177 would be fantastic. Tamiya is my far my favourite brand so why can't they do it!
I was in a bidding war with some other guys for a Me410, boy it costed a bit, I got it too, wrapped!

Went on the NZ Tamiya website, what a gorgeous kit, none available, so have to get on a waiting list. Immm, will see where else I can find one (TA 183).

Will you look at that....a '13'! 8)

 

[Airframes]

That is one ugly machine - a Hippocroccofrog of the aviation world !

Change the insignia and you'd have a Mig-15

......or SAAB J29 Tunnan! 8)

It's that empenage - it just look so wrong, making the whole thing look like a cross between an insect and a reptile !

...which is actually bang on Mike! The MiG-15 and predecessors were infact progressive developments of the Ta 183 plans, winning out over the twin jet arrangement of the Me 262.

 

[vikingBerserker]

I have to agree with Terry, it's pretty but-ugly. Now the Me 262 was a real stunner.

Didn't Tank go to South America after the war and create another version, Argentina perhaps?

Argentina it was indeed Geo....

I'd like to see a P-43, kingfisher and a Norseman in 1:48.

 

[Lucky13]

I wouldn't mind this in 1/48 either!

You may try to the HpH resin kit... IL-28 HpH 1:48 Resin - Forum Modelarskie
