I’'ve looked around, but haven’t found what I want in the right scale, and pewter is usable, but barrels are fragile.
Ideas?

Check out Ebard on shapeways.com - not sure about everything you’re looking for, but I bought some of his Gloster Meteors, and they’re fantastic.
Other than the Gloster, nothing I am looking for. And the Gloster I think is too big at over 2cm long?
Check out these:

I ordered the Meteor, will post a pic when I get it.

Ebard’s Meteors are 2.3cm long and have a wingspan of 2.0cm. They’re slightly longer (and have a slightly shorter wingspan) than the G40 OOB Spitfires, but smaller than the Mosquitoes. If you’re playing G40, I think you’ll find them just right.

I was musing about the Caproni, but think it would not be distinguishable as anything special. The Re.2007 would work as a recognizable jet fighter, though. I think.
I am using HBGs Me 262 (bit small), Kikka and P80, so I would want all the fighters to be in that size even if they are not to scale among themselves. Maybe a Gloster at 700 would do it for me.
