Nice build !
I did the 1/72 DML kit years ago, before this one was available (I didn't want the R/M kit).
How's the gear/wheel well detail? I may just have to get one myself.


I found the detail throughout the kit exceptional, I ended up selling the resin cockpit I had bought and stuck with the stock one to ease in the building process. The only hang up on the kit are the ejector pin marks on the insides of all the doors. They can be filled and sanded though or a piece of lead foil can be cut to size and glued over them.

All in all the kit is superb much like the Corsair or the P-47 they have recently released.

Here is my recently finished my Tamiya Do335 Pfeil, I just wanted to share a couple of pics and a link to the article I wrote. I really enjoyed building this kit, it absolutely falls together without the need of any filler. I may purchase another in the future and do a bare metal finish on it.
