Quite good, but upper surfaces of the wings and horizontal stabilizers are shaded too (read: made in lighter shade, like the upper edge of fuselage), and that red elements (on fuselage and vertical stabilizer) need to be shaded too.

It a very encouraging start, beyond the shading issue it has all the FD essentials.

Certainly a vast improvement over your first work. Just needs the shading fixes Eswube mentioned then you're all done.

They are great, but...
the only front-line unit using Ta-152's was JG301.
Others were using Fw-190D, and that's not exactly the same plane (most visible difference - among others - it that Fw-190D has smaller wingspan).
Btw. - why You're usually leaving so much blank space between scale and uppermost plane? Asking just out of curiosity.

Awesome!

But Barkhorn was using Langnasen-Dora not Ta-152 in Jagdgeschwader 6.

That's my point - I'm using standard templates too, but am adding not only below. :)

I can't believe it, I did pretty good! Darth Panda, I need to change my underpants, but the swastika arms are still short! :)

He-1078a is done now. Plus here's my Me-323 one more time.

Tounushifan, please, stop nitpicking about the swastika arms. It is a small scale and some things are left diminished for those that may find them painful to see, or are offended by them, or for the sake of space on the tail. I am a major stickler for historical accuracy, but even I submit to those with that kind of issue. If you'll notice with my WW2 Finnish aircraft, I offer up both those with the Finnish version of the swastika, and those with the post war roundel.
