Scale tribute to the ME 410 Hornisse

The Italeri 0074 - 1/72 ME 410 Hornisse Model Kit captures the profile and character of the Messerschmitt ME 410 in a manageable 1/72 format. The kit is built around accurate lines and small components that reward careful assembly and finishing.

Operational background and modelling interest

As a successor to earlier twin-engine attempts, the ME 410 featured improved flight characteristics and heavier armament. Its varied operational roles make it an appealing subject for modellers who collect heavy fighters and night interceptors.

Tips for building and displaying the finished model

Due to the kit scale, pay attention to fit and small detail handling. Pre-painting subassemblies and using masking on canopies helps achieve clean results. The finished model displays well on its own or as part of a themed collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Polystyrene
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
This kit suits intermediate modellers. If you have experience with small parts and careful painting you will be comfortable, while beginners may find some steps fiddly.
Yes, paint is not included. Applying primer and then thin layers of paint will bring out panel lines and fine detail. Both acrylics and enamels are appropriate.
Use a clear coat to seal decals and paint. Satin or matt varnish choices depend on the finish you want; apply light, even coats to avoid running.
Mask canopies before painting and attach them after most painting is done. Use a non-fogging adhesive and handle clear parts minimally to avoid fingerprints and scratches.
