Administrators James H Posted January 11, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 11, 2015 Hi folks, Here it is, freshly finished and photographed for Military Illustrated Modeller. You'll find the build log HERE. In all, it's mostly been a great build. It has been a little frustrating in places, but that's the nature of a short-run kit. I have to say that Fly have done a pretty good job with those, and if you're contemplating getting it.....don't....just go and BUY! Even though she's a pretty big bird, she's still sort of dwarfed a little in stature by the Dornier Do 335! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 That looks great, I thought it would be bigger than the 335 Cheers Dennis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackyracer Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Spot on Jim. Really nice. That 335 is a beast sitting next to the 234. Did you use the kit fug or a Master set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James H Posted January 11, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted January 11, 2015 Those are the kit parts. They did pretty well with them. Not as good as metal, but no cost either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Stunning result Jim .... I agree with everyone else, it certainly shows that the "Pfeil" was no small and nimble machine! The Arado looks terrific! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumm Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Wow, that came together really well Jim... Currently working on a much less complex Fly kit, so I can imagine just how much work has gone into the '234 to get her finished to that standard. Lovely as usual!

efrick Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Amazing as always James! Great to see the 335 next to the 234, not only for dimensional comparison but a fascinating "what-if" scenario as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumm Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Yes I did Jim... You saw my wood effect Fly Natter then? It was spectacular, but your use of the Uschi decals is probably a little beyond my skill set at this point in time. This one will be a more simplified build, perhaps I'd like to do an opened and stripped version once I see how this one goes together. S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 What an envious collection! That Do really dwarfs anything next to it!!! Cheers Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
