Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hi guys,

For a long time I have wanted a 1/18 scale ARADO 234....hoping that someone did it in this scale for a long time...but by the look of things...this may never happen.

So I decided to scrachtbuild my own, do any member here have a spare ME 262 (21st or Admiral models) wings with the engine nacelles laying around that are willing to sell?..I really do not want to pay an "arm and leg" for a minty/boxed model of the ME-262 just to cut it up for spare/conversion parts ...need this as a starting point to convert to the Ar-234 configuration.

Hey PLASTICFANTASTIC, good to hear from you!
I don't have any 262 parts but you might give Pickelhaube a try. He's done plenty of customs and my have
some spare parts, send him a PM.

Thanks for the tip Normandy, will contact him to see if he have these pieces. I am really looking forward to statt this project!!!!

Once more thanks.

Fred

Too bad you didn't bring this up first in early 2012 and then again in fall of the same year! That year, I had my original 21c ME-262 nightfighter take a plunge and get pretty badly beat up. Then, later in the year, an example I intended to be a replacement pretty much got run over by a truck when it was being mailed to me and was in even worse condition than my first. So I basically went through two trashed ME-262s before the third one came out just fine. They both went to other board members, one of whom was in fact Pickelhaube

Yes is sad that I did not pursuit this project sooner, now finding the donor pieces could be quite an expensive proposition!!!
