I recently completed a special request project for some WWII+,what-if, minis. All three minis are available from Armaments in Miniature, LLC. The Ju-287 is an AIM reproduction of Ron Crawford's HBM model.

The P-80 and Meteor are single-piece, resin minis. The Ju-287 comes as a multi-piece kit which consists of the airframe and four landing gears.

The Meteor is unmodified. I removed the tip tanks from the P-80. I added a tail gun, did not install the landing gears, and removed the nose-wheel mounts to/from the Ju-287. I've included a picture of the Ju-287 I'm building for Armaments in Miniature to show what the basic kit looks like when assembled.

I didn't have any problems with the kits. I used decals from I-94 Enterprises. Paints are Vallejo Model Color.

Thanks for looking, Kevin
