Thanks Pete and M. I really appreciate your words. There's a local memorial that we're helping the family out with on Friday so that those who couldn't make it up to North Texas for the funeral can go pay their respects.

Fantastic job on this Joe, with the right background you would think it was real !  And I'm sorry about the news of your friend, I know it's not easy but be grateful you knew him, rather than sad you lost him... |

And I'm sorry about the news of your friend, I know it's not easy but be grateful you knew him, rather than sad you lost him... Thanks Martin. I appreciate the kudos and the encouragement. Things are starting to roll forward some now and I am grateful that I knew him and am taking some of his values as my own. Just an all around good fella. |

That 262 is simply stunning!!! Superbly executed Joe. Martin is soo right, the right background and you would be hard pressed to tell it from the real deal.

This kit really was a good one to put together but then again......pretty much any Tamiya kit is alot easier to deal with than most. |

Excellent finish, Joe! I really like the all gray scheme too. The added details really made this pop.

Really appreciate your comments here Les and it's sure good to see you again. I've got a couple more Luftwaffe builds lined up....one of which I hope to get to this year. We'll see..... |

Knocked it out of the park Joe! All your effort has really paid off with a superb example of a milestone in aviation history. Outstanding work sir, just fabulous!  |
