Toshi,

 

Man there is a lot of complexity to this kit.

Well done Toshi. I'll have to agree that it would look stunning with half painted, maybe the port side. As always its a pleasure to see your work.

To my fellow forum members,

The first two photos are of the air brakes that I wrote about earlier in this thread.  The final pic is of the underside.  I won't be posting the finale of this build until I receive a neat little surprise.  I think you will all enjoy my final presentation.  Until then, I love you all, be safe and enjoy life.

Cool Toshi!you did a great job on it!

 

Looks good so far there Tosh! I'm really lookin' forward to the finished model. Great work on an intense kit!

Hi, Toshi -

Another great one completed, very well done, super job all around. What a model builder, sometimes speedy building results in a rough looking model, not the case with you.

Even at your supersonic building speed, you turn out some of the better models to be seen. You're advancements are remarkable, and in such a short time.

Thanks for all the posts and photos.

To my fellow forum members,

Here is my surprise for you all today, I had to find them.  These are used stamps so they are not worth anything, well maybe $5.00 total.  Unused and in mint not hinged condition, they tend to sell at or around $18.00 on average but could go for more.  

I need to still take photos of the completed Ho 229.  I'll be doing that in a few minutes and I will post the completed pics shortly.  Please enjoy the stamps as I feel they go very well with the Horten 229.  

Toshi

By the way, there are two more sets of these type of stamps, for a total of three sets.  I still have to find them.  One of the stamps have three Stuka dive bombers diving, I know Bish would get a thrill out of that stamp.  LOL!

Toshi

Oh wow that's really neat Toshi, very cool! 

You may have addressed this and I missed it but did you have to cement the clear panels in place or can you remove them for a clear view of the interior detail?

And cool set of stamps, always thought they were interesting but I don't need yet another hobby to blow time on!  

Those stamps look really cool Toshi. You need to frame them cuz they will look great hanging on a wall. I hope you find the rest of them.

That Horten looks awesome. Great job

Toshi,

I applaud you sir!  You really get things done!  The Horten is one of my all-time favorite German jets.

You did an outstanding job on a unique subject Toshi.

I thought everyone would enjoy those stamps.  They are one of the very few depicting tanks, planes, and soldiers.

I never seen nor heard of the Horten until the special on TV about it.  Then when I returned to this wonderful hobby again, the research involved led me to build this kit.  In my youth, I just built kits because it was neat.  No research done.  Now it's a whole new ball game!  LOL!  Thank you for your support Real G!

You did an outstanding job on a unique subject Toshi. If the Field Marshall were here, I'd put in a recommendation for an official 229 mug.

 

Toshi

What a super cool looking build, Toshi. Great work on that challenging kit. Awesome!!

Great job on the build Toshi, really nicely finished. And i love those stamps, even without the Stuka, though i think i can guess what image that one shows. These should definatly be in a frame and mounted on the wall.

For forum members, the Penny Black is the worlds very first stamp issued from the UK.  A very rare and expensive investment.
