Dragon is also greedy then. The kit is not worth $61. It has very little detail, some fit issues. It's quality is about that of a Testors kit. (actully Testors has better surface detail). $20 would have ben a better price.
However I do plan to do an expermental camo on it...

I have put the 1/32 scale 262 on the back burner again. I realized that the curved cockpit tub I built in is much to large and am fighting the urge to tear it all out and start again. So before I turn the wheel wells into goo I stopped working on it for a while. I might finish rescribing wings and tails every now and then.

They believe now it was the rocket probably from a Typhoon that destroyed Michael Wittmann's Tiger. Love me some Tiffie.

Don't mind the fact that the tails had a bad habit of braking off in flight on the early versions of the Typhoons (something that ruined the day for a good number of pilots  )...hence the reinforcing around the fuselage just in front of the tail...
