My favorite models!
« on: March 03, 2016, 04:31:53 PM »
Hello everyone,
as I promised under "Your Introduction", now follow the images. They are a lot! :o
I hope you like my models.

Me 262 instrument panel
This I build for an exhibition. Meanwhile it is in a museum in thuringia. In this area they build some of the Me 262 in the last war.
The scale is 1/1!









Bunker 0
This model show a replica of the Bunker 0 at the Walpersberg in Thuringia as it looks 1945. I build it special for the museum at the Walpersberg. It's in 1/72 scale.
If you are interested in the history of Walpersberg, here is the link to the homepage:

Me 262 in production on Walpersberg by Uschi van der Rosten in 1/72.
Attention please! This is not the correct Bunker 0! It never looked like this.





















































Horten IX (Zoukei-Mura 1/32)











































End of part 1

And at last (in this part) the B17 Engine.

Marvelous collection, Jürgen!  I believe the 262 plant is my favorite.  So much going on.

That is a simply wonderful collection of models. The bunker gets my vote for the best too, but the B17 is also very impressive, as is the r/c tank.
