Heinkel 219 A-7 3/NJG1


Recommended Posts

Continuing my German Nightfighter exploration, here is another one from the past, built nearly OTB, only after market used being the great Master antennas. This model was built on commission and it was my first attempt at the reverse mottling scheme used on the German night figthers. Montex masks were used for the insignas. Despite some mistakes the Tamiya's "Uhu"is still a great kit to do and with the help of the Valiant book you can bring the details to another level. Plane is from the 3/NJG 1 based at Grave in 45. Cheers.

One glaring mistake - there's no way the real canopies could have been as beautifully clear as yours! The Valiant book may help as you say, but it's your skills that have taken that model to such a superb standard. I'll am sure the commission recipient will be very pleased.

Obviously he was! Thanks for the nice comments.

Beautiful work. I love the colour scheme. Did you spray the dark over light or vice versa ??

I did first spray RLM75 and then the RLM76 pattern.
