    Me262 - I feel so inadequate. I wouldn't care wether the pattern was historical or not if I could do work like that.

    since i found out that the camo was inadecuate, very, for a panther i decide to scratchbuild the turret of the coelian,( roel, i thought you were more observative)you can see it to the left of the panther,just need to glue in the muzzles for the guns

    I did see it, I just thought you were going to use two turrets for one hull depending on which you liked to show at the moment.

    Still, it's awesome!
