Trumpeter's 1/32 scale
Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a

by Alan Price

Trumpeter's 1/32 scale Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a is available online from Squadron.com

This is my Trumpeter 1/32 scale Me 262 built as Heinz Bar's "Red 13" Me 262A-1a (Wk-Nr 110559) III./EJG 2, Lechfeld, March 1945.

The model was painted with Gunze Mr Aqueous Color, and decals by Eagle Cals.

I used the superb Promodeller washes and replaced the wheels with a set produced by Master Casters. The colour scheme for this aircraft is open to debate, I settled on RLM 81/82 as there are a number of good colour photographs of aircraft with a very close serial number painted in 81/82.

This is a great kit but it takes time to build as you seem to spend forever rescribing detail when you run seams down!
