Taking a look at Sergey Parhomenko’s assembly of the He-162 model at a 1:35 scale, what immediately stands out is the clean finish. The precision in the paint job catches my eye — it’s got great contrast, and the decals are sharp, making the model quite engaging to inspect. It’s like every time you take a second glance, you notice just how neat it all comes together. The effort in maintaining the straight lines and even coat gives the aircraft a neat presence.

From what I recall, the Heinkel He-162 was a fascinating piece of aviation history. Known as the “Volksjäger,” or “People’s Fighter,” it was one of the last-ditch efforts during WWII. Designed to be a simple and fast jet fighter, it was made from non-strategic materials like wood. Can you imagine? In a world where resources were scarce, the brilliance of using wood in a jet fighter was quite something.

What makes this model worth the attention is really how it captures that unique aspect of aviation history. The clean assembly combined with the story behind the He-162 brings a rich context that model enthusiasts might find quite appealing. It’s those little details and the balanced execution that definitely draw you in for a closer look.
