[Way too many people out there telling you that the particular shade of RLM65 I used on that Messerscnitt wasn't actually in use between June and October 1943[/quote]

Hi Zeke, Sorry to correct you but it`s spelt "Messerschmitt"  and by 1943 the undersurface colour of german aircraft had changed to RLM 76 a much paler and lighter tone of blue-grey

PS sorry could not resist  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Made a little more progress on this one. Added a boom for an antenna array of some sort.

Whoa!  :o :thumbsup: :bow:

The antenna mast could also be the arm of a trebuchet or something like that! 12th century siege tank!  :wacko:
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?

If I may ask, the reason you didn't call it "Maus II" was because it was just too obvious? :cheers:

It's great to see you working on this project again, Mr Ops. I just love builds using "found objects". The boom you added along with the whimsical shape makes me think of Dr Seuss.

Very imaginative BlackOps, I like the way you can create way out models with everyday stuff.

I've always wondered what I could do with this, it's actually a muscle massaging tool.  The other thing is how would I explain to the missus what happened to it  :wacko:
