DFS 230 Gliders for my Fallschirmjägerkompanie
A really long time ago I bought some resin models depicting DFS 230 Gliders. Since I usually played ground operations they laid very long on my painting table.

The models designed by Armaments in miniature are really nice and have a good scale as far as I can say. They were easy to assemble and paint. Since I am not a big aviation fan the paintjob was done roughly and quick only using my airbrush without masking. All I used was a cardboard in order to mask the camouflage.
I used the decals which are also available from armaments. Decals are really not my cup of tea, I think I can paint faster than sticking decals to a model. However the models are finished, they will do their job as scenery or as markers for airborne missions very well.
The only thing which I would like to mention concerning painting is that I painted very quickly and the cockpit looks quite nice with the dark inside shadow.
