Smile Re: Martin Drewes Bf-110

Well, Hobbymaster have delivered the goods - here is their Bf110G-4 'Martin Drewes' which FOVCollector alerted us to last year.....










It's not perfect - there's no crew and the cockpit canopy is not very well-detailed. But manufacturers have shied away from making models of Luftwaffe nightfighters because the aerials are difficult to tackle and the 'blotchy' paint is very hard to reproduce in scale. OK, HobbyMaster haven't quite got it right but full marks for trying - keep in mind that this model is around £24 in the UK ; good value.

And at long last, diecast colelctors have a presentable display model of a very important WWII aircraft type......
