Me Bf 110 Night Fighter Jet Floatplane • FIN •

[Vulcan7]

Thought I'd have a go at an Me Bf 110 Jet as a light relief from the more tricky jet Jag. Couldn't find any other 110 jet versions but I did come across one as a ramjet testbed, looks fun .... so it may end up with 2 jets & a ramjet tail?

Love the box art.
Hope the fit is better than the Italeri Gustav currently on my bench...

FROG box art usually was pretty good, sometimes a LOT better than the plastic in the box! But they did do some unusual models though.

Haven't seen a 110 with an Argus before.

The Argus' exhaust fumes and the open combustion, well visible from the front esp. in darkness, would provide Allied bombers with a very good target marker? While I find the extra engine and its location very interesting, I am not certain about its use on a night fighter? But it's whifworld, and pretty cool.

Oh this is going to be interesting me thinks 🤔 😅
It's a twin..so automatically liked and it's a jet powered twin..even better 😃

sorry it's not a twin, I've only got the one kit (I wish it was  )

Interesting point. I just like the night fighter look, the extra speed may help it, but if it was a flawed concept that would be good for the allies anyway.... a bit like the fact that the 262 had to slow down too early to land.

Oh you misunderstand matey  ...twin is in engined 
I have a thing for twin engined aircraft..always have so it don't matter what it is ..if it's a twin I like it 😉

made some progress but found the kit was missing the top of the nose & the undercarriage (bought it on ebay a few years back, forgot to check it)

Ramjet for power Batman ..turbines for speed

I could paint it black for the 1940s batplane, there's plenty of space for Robin        ( I think I already did that though with a triple Ho 229  )

A dark gray and striped black camo ..or a medium gray works too..maybe even better looks wise

Dude that looks brilliant 👏 👍 😀

At some point I'm gonna build a float plane to but it might change into a amphibian..which will of course make things far more difficult
