1/72 PM Focke Wulf Ta-183 Huckebein

[Dermo245]

Hi all and just finished this one for a 'What If' GB elsewhere. 
Build thread is here but to recap:

Kit: 1/72 PM Models Ta-183 
Build: Mostly OOB 
Extras: Tape for belts and some plasticard in the u/c bays. Cut the one-part canopy open
Paints: Revell Acrylics by airbrush, mottle effect  with some kitchen sponge. Panel line wash.
Decals: Some from the kit, others from the spares for JG7, 1945

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A small kit...here beside an Airfix Fw-190

 

 

 

 

Not the most detailed kit by a long-shot but as a blank canvas to try out new skills or for those just getting into the hobby, I think it makes for a nice little build.

Thanks for looking!

I like it!   And I love what you did with the paintjob! 👍  That gives me ideas for my 1/48 AmTech version.  Thanks for posting that!

My LMS had this and I didn't pick it up but might do now! Cracking kit mate! I like basic blank canvas kits. It's more fun!

Very nice build on a very basic kit.
