Stumbled across this site, some great technical and airbrush artwork there, plus some miniature mock ups too!

plus this documentary:

Weird Weapons of the axis:

Had to edit your post. To all, remember, please donīt post/imagelink pictures of items which feature Swastikas, Siegrunen et al. DOnīt worry, I donīt hold you for a Nazi or sth. like that, just a general no-go policy to avoid problems for the prof.

Nonetheless, Luft ī46 is a great site, with lots of inspirational pics, although sadly enough most of the aircraft will be of little use to "ground gamers"...

... but thereīs always air combat gaming! :lol:

No problems my bad. Anyhoo I was thinking more in the lines of a raid on a secret nazi fighter hanger?

Exactly. Too bad that most plastic kits are in 1:72nd scale and thus just a tad bit small for 28mm. And 1/48ths, sadly, are horribly expensive and often too challenging to build, unless you are a really skilled modeller.

I dunno, a few nice dragon kits on ebay currently, especially the Minstel where you get a jet fighter and a flying bomb/another jet fighter which you could either build up together or separate.

Double the fun!
