1/32 Ta152B Summer of '45 what if
Massively reworked PCM Ta152H kit, different wings, corrected nose and fuselage.
The Ta152B was intended as a very heavy fighter, with six Mg151/20mm cannons and a Mk103 30mm cannon. Though none were built as far as anyone knows, the similar Ta152E, without all the guns, were started and a batch was all but done by the end of the war. This and the similar Ta152C (different engine) would have taken over the roles 0f the Fw190 family of fighters and fighter-bombers in a longer lasting war.

Just wait until you see what I do to the new ZM Ta152H kit. Totally naked engine, open up most of the hatches and scratch all the goodies. The kit does have some stuff inside, but need more. Do it up a bit like the one found in Bremen in '45, pre-painted wings, bare metal main fuselage, pre-painted tail assembly, pre-painted power egg. The flaps, fin, and several of the hatches will be in plywood instead of metal.
A guy in our local model group has cast some Cadillac (?) fins for a space rocket model he's building. I want to build a Saturn V launch stack for the MPC Pilgram space probe and have evil plans for some Moon busses, though someone else already is doing the Tyco school district yellow moon bus.
Yaay - I'm setting up to run "WAR ROCKET" for a local con

Have you seen the "Airfix Dogfighter" game? You select plastic models and tangle with the enemy as if you are kids playing with model plaanes - you fly all through roms in houses, dodging and ducking through kitchens. In a test versin, you could even choose garish paint jobs as done buy kids with the wrng paints (or using mon's nail varnish) - with engine sounds provided by the human voice ("neeeroooowm! taka-taka-taka-taka-taka!")

As it was, at least three and possibly a dozen got built, and there were also the similarly powered Fw190D11/13, of which at least a dozen were produced. The Ta152H had numbers over 50, but as with everything else in late war Germany, too little, too late, and without fuel or trained crews to fly them.
