Late Friday night my Matchbox FW 190 was ready dir painting nur I was not in the right mood.
So I picked up a PM Ta 183 off the shelf and started. That included scratched landing gear houses and a scratched jet intake by modifying a ball-pen. Now it is ready to be filled and for more details in those houses.

More challenging builds, eh?
I'm curious to see what you do with these...

Your FW 190 reminds me of the prototype!

When I think Huckebein, I think early Mig.

I do believe that OKB Mig based their design off of the Huckbein.

Yepp. And the other development, the Messerschmitt Me P. 1101 was the mother of "your" Bell X-5 and N.A. Sabre and the swedish Tunan....
Some news here.
Using a screenshot of a PE-cockpit was my base to do an instrument-panel. So I used a scaled print out, glued it onto a sheet of plastic and covered the edges with black paint. Positioned into my Ta 183 it looks better than nothing.
My FW 190 by Matchbox got its first airbrush layers in RLM74/75/76. Not bad, but some modifications needed. I guess this will happen after my vacation.
