Subject: Me163 Komet

Manufacturer: Airfix

Constructed in 1978

What a change from the 60's Airfix offerings and their multitude of pan-sized rivets. Very restrained, raised, surface detail and, for a change, better than bottom of the market decals. The wing/fuselage filler has sunk over time and it's a shame that I didn't apply the decals over a coat of clear gloss and seal them in with a coat of matt.
