Hi again,if you ever do achieve perfection let us know! I've been trying for a long time and still haven't got there The fun is in the trying,which is just as well.

Cheers

If I ever reach perfection, I think I'll be a bit dissapointed. I like trying new tricks out in a build.

I couldn't agree more with you Colin. I enjoy the challenge.

You build models like you take Photographs. Bloody wonderfully !

Not a lot to add to the other comments really.

Very nice indeed.

You are very kind Ian. I have been a photographer for many years, and earn a few quid with it. I am passionate about both

Hello Graham! That's a beauty of a build (5 stars) and great paint-job! Your photos are top notch, too : ) What a great return to the hobby.

P.S. Steve, that's interesting about the reject 262s marked with an 'S'. I'll keep a look out for photos of those.

I missed your post Ajay. The S wasn't always a big red one as in this example. Sometimes they were white and a bit smaller and appeared in the centre of the fuselage cross. 'White 17' of III./EJG 2,of which a very good colour photograph exists,is an example of this.The white S also appears on the fin above the werk nummer,infront of the swastika.

The S in both cases stands for 'Schule' (school) and effectively means the aircraft is only to be used for training,not being passed for combat.

Cheers

Steve
