Cockpit sides added. Decals of controls added. Had to use a fair amount of filler to join the two side parts as fit was pretty poor. 🙂

Wings added to fuselages/tail planes. Tail together. Cockpit added to fuselage. A bit of filler required. 🙂

Main parts of the plane now together. Filler has had to be used almost everywhere 🙂

Following too. Lots of filler-perhaps they should supply it with a tube 😉

Following with interest. I have been sure from the outset that it is an incarnation of MPM kit - I have a "panzer" V6 version in my stash and approach it very reluctantly from time to time... 😉

Thanks Patryk, Gary & Robert 👍
@Gary, the way it's going, I think a new tube of filler may be required!!
@Robert, I agree with you, this is an incarnation of the MPM/Condor kit from 2001. 🙂

That's a hell of a lot of canopy glass to mask off, but you've done a great job so far. Following 👍

Primer added to complete aircraft. First coat of RLM71 added to top of fuselage. 🙂

Vallejo Model Air RLM04 added to the wing tips as per the instructions. Yellow always seems difficult to apply or is it just me? 🙂

In case 1/72 is too small….. aircraftrestorationcompany.com/fw189

RLM65 added to underneath of fuselage. 🙂 Next job is to add RLM04 bands on. 🙂

Vallejo Model Air RLM04 bands added and Vallejo Model Air Azure Blue to the tail planes. 🙂

Looking great Guy. That azure blue on the tail is an unexpected pop of colour. 👍

Many thanks Andy and Gary @Gary, the azure blue is on the painting guide, I admit i was surprised but now quite like it 👍

Undercarriage on, gloss varnish added, decals added, panel line wash (Ammo Mig). Now ready for the last bits to be added, matt varnish and removal of masks. 🙂

I declare the FW 189 A-1 complete. It represents one flown from Artemovsk, Ukraine in the summer of 1942 as a member of 1/H/32. 🙂

Really nice - makes me think about completing the assault version I have in my stash (the one that needs considerably less masking 😉 )

Many thanks, Clifford, Robert and Andy. I greatly appreciate your kind comments. 👍

That's a nice Uhu. I guess with this many windows it is still possible to see enough of the cockpit details. 👍

Many thanks WhiteGlint. 👍 Yes, you can see a fair amount of the internals, I've been looking back at my photos which don't seem to do justice to what you can actually see with the naked eye (well, with my glasses on anyway 🙂 )
Many thanks to all of you who have made comments and for the generous likes. 👍
