Here are some pics of an older model of the Me 262 V484 prototype I made a couple years ago. It is the 1/72 scale MPM (or Special Hobby) kit built box stock, this was the first kit I ever built that had a vac-form canopy which I had some trouble with but aside from that the kit was fun to make.

Some of these pics have been changed with the colors slightly toned down to match the color photos of the wartime era. These set of photos are for testing the color levels, the grainy effect and scratchs will be added at some time in future pictures.





Let me know what you think about the lower color levels and tint in this batch of photos.

The 2nd & 4th piccies really have that "washed out" look that you see in German wartime colour photos.

Thanks nev!

Last night I tried my new photo editing software ''Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0'' for the first time, and once I learn more about it I should be able to age my pictures like I wanted to. The adjustment for ''noise'' is very easy to work with compared with my old photo editing which was either full on or off like a light switch. Adding scratches also is easy to do now.
