Blohm & Voss 141 needed
Posted by Mark Hembree on Wednesday, July 16, 2014 5:00 PM

One of FineScale Modeler magazine's sisters here at Kalmbach, Art Jewelry,  is working on a story that touches on the subject of symmetry -- or the lack of it. Believe it or not, one example of asymmetry their author chose was the Blohm & Voss 141. 

I've seen the Bundesarchiv picture everyone has, but a model shot would work fine. Anyone happen to have one?

Thanks!

Mark H.

Yeesh man!! BV-141 models are in hort supply right now. Coming up soon will be the Hobby Boss 1/48 141 and maybe you'll have a build or two for a model shot there. Somebody here might have a 72nd scale kit of this built but outside of that I don't see many of these being built myself.

Hey Joe, the HB 141 is out already Big Smile

I saw it at my LHS two weeks ago and it looks like a really fine kit!

That's one kit I have yet to add to the stash, let alone the built pile. SH have a 72nd one due out, I may well get that.

When do you need it by Mark.

I've got one on order that'll be here by next week. I pre-ordered it from Squadron last month!

Additionally I was thinking of Bish the whole time I was typing that about a 72nd scale 141.

AWWWWWW, how sweet, you were thinking of me Big Smile

I know Airfix once had one in 72nd, but after doing the SH Stuka, I am rather keen on their kits. I have wanted to add one of these for a while, hardly surprising given my interest in German subjects in general and the more unusual once especially.

I may not have been clear enough here -- I am not looking for the model. I'm wondering if anyone has a photo of theirs. MH

No deadline -- I was just casting a line to see if I got any bites. Thanks! MH
