Revell 1/32 He 162

By Rato Marczak

It is done! I declare my Revell Salamander in 1/32 scale finished.

It was one of the most arduous modeling projects I put myself into. Of course, I had to make many concessions along the way, but it is virtually impossible to foresee all the problems from the outset in a project like this one. Some parts were made three, four, or five times – only to discover that the last was not all that much better than the first one.

However, I enjoyed the journey immensely, as it was one of those opportunities when you can incorporate much of your research into the model, and, in the process, I shattered David Parker’s Panzer IV record by almost a year.

I also plan to write an article showing the methods and techniques used to scratchbuild all the details of the Salamander, so keep an eye out for it.

Enjoy!
