I have a German aerial torpedo (1/72) I can send you. I have a bunch of Italaeri He-111's, and the torpedoes that come with it are wonderful!

PM an address, and it's yours!
My mind is like a compost heap: both "fertile" and "rotten"!

Thanks, Sequoiaranger.  PM sent.  That will save me having to scratchbuilt the torpedo.

At last, I can bet back to modeling.  Today is the first day I've made it to the work bench in almost 2 weeks.  Here is the lastest on my Me-410 torpedo bomber.  I have added some details to the cockpit interior.  The kit only came with a floor and seats.  The interior has been primed but needs painted.  I have the basic assembly of fuselage and wings done.  Next step is PSR. 






Hmmm.  I just noticed that the camera has the wrong date since I just took these photos a few minutes ago.

Finished this one this evening.  And by the original deadline (Feb 1).  How about that.  Here's my Me410 topedo bomber from the German Carrier Graf Zeppelin in the dark "North Sea" scheme.   Torpedo courtesy of Sequoiaranger.  Thanks!!!

Something else Ed!  :bow:

I love the idea and the execution, well done indeed.  :cheers:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Sharp as a tack, Ed! I really like your subtle paint chipping and work on the wing folds!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That looks good. Class built!!!!!
But the Me 410 would have been much too large for the Graf Zeppelin!
The hangars and lift were too small.

This was for the second 'Graf Zeppelin' after the first one was sunk while being launched.

They left the plug out......  -_-

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

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?
