1/48 Tamiya Do-335

Gallery Article by Hans Haupt

 

Soon after release in Germany this kit was done and it was a good opportunity to compare with the other DO 335 I have on the assembly line from Monogram.

Here you can see the different possibilities for cockpits: the original Tamiya which is perfect, the smaller from the Eduard set and the Monogram one.....

This 104 is meant to be a member a of a future scrap-yard diorama and is heavy weathered.  The kit itself made no problems, though I wonder what those lil holes in the fuselage are meant for!  I cut off the pins that were meant to fix the wheels.  The decals are mixed Pro-Modelers 104 and Tamiya.  The figures are from Preiser.
