Hi guys. Here is a model I have done just after it came out (1992). It's the 1/48 Arado 234 C4 from Revell with the Tamiya V1 on it's back.
The trapeze for the V1 was scratched build from plastic tubing/plate. The two planes were build out of the box with exeption for the resin wheels and some seatbelts.

Cheers Arnold :cheers:

Guys, I found a topic on this site as well where you can see how it (would have) worked.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I've got a Matchbox kit of that very same combo, in 1/72.

Seriously nice work! :thumbsup:

This was one of my grail kits when I was a kid. The local toy shop had a fairly comprehensive Revell selection, a decent amount of Italeri kits and a select few Dragon kits. Oh, these Dragon kits. Such awesome box art, metal parts, even called "Golden Wings Series", but far out of reach for my pocket money.  :o
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Excellent Arnold! :wub: Got three of the Revell Arado's in the stash but I'm afraid I know I'll wreck it if I attempted one!  :bow:
