Unfortunately the Tempest does not seem to have been documented in photos, so everything about it (other than that it existed) is conjecture. Even the Stammkennzeichen was only partly documented.Tried to find photos Olaf, but could only find captured Typhoons sorry.
George's statement about 'looking busy' is an understatement to be sure. I'm just now, after a week, getting all of those small parts cleaned up and attached where they need to be. Wow, there are a bunch of them. But they do fit well, as intended. I'm not seeing the upper areas of the cockpit walls in flat black? Going with a 'builders choice' since anything could have changed after capture?I've managed to assemble the first few steps along the way- next up, painting what I've done so far.
It's a nice, pleasant kit to build so far, except for the numbering on the sprues, which I find I'm struggling to read in quite a few instances, as the numbers seem to blend into the sprue a little.

That would be because it's not painted at all yet! That's today's mission.I'm not seeing the upper areas of the cockpit walls in flat black? Going with a 'builders choice' since anything could have changed after capture?
Sorry , my error. But I do need to complement on the cage being all together, no broken ribs. Mine, not so lucky. Should have done dry fitting to a better detail. The cage, in my opinion, not only super detailed, but better suited to yoinger hands.That would be because it's not painted at all yet! That's today's mission.
