He-162A-2 Salamander (1/48 Tamiya)

Latest addition to my collection is this tiny He-162A-2 Salamander from Tamiya. I used some additional details, Aires cockpit and wheelbays replaced the kit parts and some photoetched parts from Eduard were also used. 
A lot of extra work went into engine detailing, Lead wires and Albion alloys brass tubes were used to enhance the beautiful BMW-002 jet engine. Model was painted with MRP Paints and subtile weathered with Ammo weathering products. Engine latches came from Yahu models. Luftwaffe Pilot figure is from Aerobonus range.
