Complete - Tamiya 1/48 He-219 A-7 Uhu

Beautiful build! Great work on the paint job too!

Wow. That's spectacular. Great job on an odd looking airplane.

Oh Man, that looks great !  I've viewed your pics 3 times now and I'm more impressed each time.  That paint job....Whew !

I painted the props Tamiya black-green, which to me looks a lot like RLM 71. A lot of the models I saw online were that color, and that's what my instructions said as well.

 

Bod, thanks, thats the colour i thought they should be. It just thew me off reading Dragon's instructions.

Excellent job on that Uhu. The camo came out looking outstanding. I bet those radar antennas were a PITA to align.

I never completely trust specially Dragon or any other kit maker (except Wingnutwings) for their color callouts. Remember the color Eduard listed to paint the ammo cases in my 1/35 Hetzer? WNW on the other hand puts out very good reference material with their products.

 

No, i don't either. I use my own guides for painting. It was the fact that i saw it some where else, i think in one of my books, that threw me a bit. I just wanted to se if it was somthing unique to teh 219. I knew they are normally RLM 70 or 71 depending on whether they are wood or metal.
