From the research I have done on the net they only made 2 that is know to have been operating. I just hope the mask comes off ok.

Well I took the mask off the canopy of the Komet. Added some of the small parts and put the decals on.

Thats a nice job Tony, well done. A bit of an oddball plane but hey, still a fantastc job. You know... i was looking today at when i joined this site, Oct 08 just over 2 years ago and i git to thinking. I have built 1 and 3/4 planes in that time, how many have you completed ? a lot more i know lol. I need the practice but its very slow going. Do you think im still a beginer having only built 1 complete plane, i guess ill be 100 before i get to novice.

I really dont know I have a shelf with ones that need to be finished off but that depends how I feel at the time. Have to be in the right frame of mind. Still have the tractor to complete.

Thank you Andy.

Cheers Ray. Tractor is being painted now slowly.

@Paul. It is the 2 seater version. I was a little scared taking the mask off as it has been on nearly a week. Looks good tho.

Cheers Tony..

A great build, a great addition for a cracking dio piece, looking forward to what you do with the La-5 and SU-37 Tony.:biggrin:

 

[msm2]

Tractor need some more paint and some weathering then it will be finished. Started on the La-5 last night,but the fuselage isnt going together well.

Lovely job and a very unusual and interesting subject. The tractor sets it of perfectly and is crying out for a little cameo diorama. Great job with the masks and finish.

 

[msm2]

Thank you Richard I was alittle worried about the mask and the rubber mask.They came off really well. Will be putting it on a small base with a few figures.May add in a Kettenkrad .

Tony..

 

[stona]

Looks great. As the chaps said,it will make a nice centre piece for a dio. Maybe include one of the original rocket men!

Cheers

Steve

Tractor is finished now. Placed them both on a small MDF base to see how it looks.
