The 410 is a total rework of the highly unstable 210. Built at a time when German high command was still trying to get the jack of all trades aircraft. The 410 was built as a bomber fighter nightfighter zerstorer and a torpedo fighter and was a master at none

Time to wrap this one up. Sorry for the delay, but i had a bit of an issue at the start of March which meant i wasn't able to build much and i feel behind a bit, but this things can't be helped.

So, after my last update i did some light weathering with flory washes. This is only my second build with a black surface and i was really pleased with how it looked. But then once i added the clear matt coat it all seemed to vanish. I decided to just leave it rather than try and mess around with it.

Then added the final parts to finish off the aircraft.

And then to finish it off, onto the base. The bomb trolley is from Zvezda. Unfortunatly the figures are not ideal but its about all i have to work with now, my supply is running very low.

Other than the black underside, i am really pleased with how this turned out. I do like these FM kits and look forward to build some more, i think next will be one of there Bf 109's.

Thanks for looking and all comments welcome as always.

I hope the delay was not a health issue?  Still, you persevered and it looks like another show stopper!

Thank you Toshi.

It was, but nothing series. It was a trapped femeral nerve which meant it was awkward to sit down but even more painful to lay down. I only got about 3 hours sleep a night for 2 weeks so when it came to bench time it was hard to focus.

But given what people like you have been through it was nothing.

Well done.  I hope you're back is in as good a shape. Sore backs are never fun.  Nice to see a lesser common aircraft built.

Looks like you’ve pulled another great aircraft build off again Martin. Sorry to hear about your back giving you problems. Hope you’re feeling better soon.

Beautiful build Bish, back pain is terrible and not being able to lay down is even worse.

That turned out really nice.  I've never built a fine mold kit - have pick one up.  Maybe even this 410 - cool and powerful looking airplane.

Thanks,

John
