Username: Crimea River
Name: Andy
Category 1 Advanced
Model: Heinkel He 219 A-2
Scale: 1:48
Manufacturer: Tamiya
Aftermarket addons: Eduard seat belts and lots of scracth built crap

Finished shots of this challenging build follow. The build had its highs and lows but overall I'm pretty happy with the results. This is a good kit with incredible fit but there were some key detail parts left out that, if included, would have made this an exceptional kit from Tamiya.








4 supplemental shots:

Brilliant! Excellent! - that's a damn fine job CR. I'll leave some superlatives for others, but it's hard not to use them all myself.

Cheers
