      Heinkel He 219 A-7 UHU

      I hope you'll be easy on me its been over 10 years since I built something other than a motorcycle kit. The kit is really nice and comes with a weighted cockpit floor

      I've got the cockpit almost complete ,I did a light wash on it thinking of going over it again any suggestions?





      also been researching for days without a lot of luck on color photos anybody got any leads thanks in advance

      Not much wrong with that Trey.

      Don't spend too much time looking for the disc brakes though will you, 'cos there aren't any!!

      I'm with Richard.
      Leave that now and move on to the next stage.
      I did notice a distinct lack of twistgrip and I'm not sure about the saddles....

      Hiya Trey,I'd leave the cockpit,looking good.
      I can give you a run down on the RLM colours used on these machines if that would be helpful. You should be able to find equivalents to the RLM (it just stands for Reich air ministry) colours in model paints.
      I've got this colour photo on my HD.



      Not very good I'm afraid. I return home this evening and I'll see if I can turn anything better up for you.

      Cheers
      Steve

      Can't wait to see where you get a photo etch chain for it from ;-)

      Cockpit looks great

      Lookin great Trey. Are the harnesses an add-on or do they come with the kit?

      Be careful Trey. Once you step into the world of the nightfighter it's a very hard one to get out of lol
