as a world war II aircraft modeler in my youth, i attest that the illustration on the box sold the model and i'd buy this messerschimdt for the captivating and evocative image! this is great artistry: a dramatic story being told along with a skilled rendering of aircraft, sky and ground. bravo sir.
