It seems as though I have my own version of the fabled Tortoise and the Hare story. I started my Do 335A-1 Pfeil (the tortoise) and my F-100D Super Sabre (the hare) at the same time and I was certain I would be finished with the Super Sabre long before the much neglected Pfeil. I quickly advanced with the Super Sabre, flying through the build. As with the Super Sabre, I found a good rhythm with the Pfeil and kept with it. As it turns out, I surpassed the Super Sabre and now I’m finished with the Pfeil.
Construction went well with no major problems to hinder anything. DML did a fair job with this version. The decals were a little hard to deal with. They were thin and took an unusually long time to release from the backing. I managed to conquer these issues with no headaches and I think the finished kit turned out well.
Nice work . . . I did post a link to a photo I have of the only surviving Pfeil, on your earlier post about starting this project.

Great photo`s and such detail. I`m afraid the only aircraft I made was for my kids , and so long as they could fly they were happy. 🙂
