Me262-V3 Prototype (HiPlane 1/72)

Terrible kit!
Don't buy it unless you really want this version or you are a masochist (The one who have built/know this kit will understand).

I didn't buy it BTW! I got it as our club holds an annual competition called Build a Bitch Model.

The idea is to wrap up your least loved kit and put on pile, so everyone will pick up a kit from the pile. We do it on our last meeting of the year (December) and we have to build and put on the table in our first meeting of the year (February), we vote on the best looking model on the table and the winner get hi/her annual club fee as a prize.
 

Needless to say I got this Bi#*h in 2014 and finished it only last month.

Comments and critics are welcomed!























Cheers

Looks good Paulo, really like the mottling. If this is as much of a pig as you say then you've done a great job of hiding it. I see a well built and painted model. Again, a well restrained hand with your weathering.

Top job!

 

I also like the kit swap idea at your club.

I've heard some really nasty things about that kit, but the finished result makes it look really good.

Nothing wrong with tat one either, great work for a kit with a bad reputation.

Thanks guys

Looks fantastic to me

I too have heard bad things about this kit but you have done a great job with it. 

I also like the Club idea even if it is likely to end many friendships
