    This little Uhu is looking oh so swell! Can't wait to see it done - it's one of my favorite German planes

    Between it and the FW200, the Dark Side is strong in you, oh Master! I am coming closer to succumbing

    All the best,
    Matt

    Keep up the good work Dave. We are convincing Matt that there is real power in the Dark Side.

    Now that it is getting dark I can do the nightfighter colors!

    Clipper, A favourite of mine.
    You have done a great job especially at 1/200 scale!!
    If you will permit me(?) below are two of my resin 1/144 models (one in a nightfighter scheme as glimpsed in the colour photo also below). It is probably a standard RLM 70/71 with RLM 65 or 76 (light Blue) dotted over it.

    Found that I had to re-upload the old pre-hack picture with a different name and file format for it to show!

    In preparation for my Slide to the Dark Side, I was looking at FW 189 pictures, because I'll definitely need to get a couple of these Uhus from you, Dave. AND I spotted several color schemes of the plane for NJG 100 - it seems they mounted a 2,0 cm cannon in a Schraege Musik arrangement in the cabin and used it as a night fighter

    Peter, I should have looked at your second picture above - it shows the same sort of arrangement.

    What a cool way to use this recon plane in another way!

    All the best,
    Matt
