It was hard getting all the curves to look right, but I feel it came out
fairly close to the original, considering the size.  I also added some
decals and a small ground crew set to add some interest.

Dude!! Thats awesome!! You did a great job on that model, my friend. The
nosecone is simply inspired!


Thanks!  The nosecone started the whole thing - I was trying to figure out what
I could use the 4x4 cone for, when I noticed it matched well with the 2x2
concave slopes.

BTW, just a detail, the Me163 was also known as the "Komet."

So what's left, the Me-262, Ju-88, some Heinkel and Dornier bombers? The
wooden jet fighter that never really flew? The humongous 6 engined
glider/transport?

Nope, I've already started on the Me-262 ^_^

Cool, I'd love to see it when your done.  I had given up on doing this because
the engines seemed too hard.


Thanks again,

Gary
