Nice job on the build what I really like is the paint. I wonder wy the jets still have the early war  sharp edge camo type.

I also have a hobby boss 262 its the night fighter version the box art show the 2 fuel drop tanks but not in the instructions or in the box.

Bummer because I liked the look of them.

Another beauty, Grant. The open bays and canopy are a nice touch, very realistic display, it's all well done but I especially like the side mottling, I'm terrible at it. Thanks for the post and photos.

Very nice, what colors are those on the wing?

Really great job on the 262. Great scheme. A background a little less distracting would set it off even better.

Great looking model and paint scheme.  Your masking looks very crisp!

Oh wow.  Kits OOB are pretty impressive these days, detail wise.  Very nice build.

I've been on the fence as far as adding one to my stash.  Looks like I might have to buy one.  Looks great!

Just finished off this one, must say it is a great kit. It is OOB and there are 2 schemes to chose from.

Paints used- Italeri, Tamiya and Vallejo acrylics. Gunze Mr Color and Gunze Mr. Metalizers.
Flory dark dirt wash, oil paint streaking underneath. And Vallejo satin varnish.
