Finished kit. Had to add a bit of weight to keep it standing on the tricycle landing gear. One main concern, the landing gear was pretty fragile, so one has to be careful moving the model.
Underside. Wheel wells had no detail, so I left them that way.

1/72 scale concept design the late days of WW2.
From Wikipedia
The Focke-Wulf Ta 183 Huckebein was a design for a jet-powered fighter aircraft intended as the successor to the Messerschmitt Me 262 and other day fighters in Luftwaffe service during World War II. It had been developed only to the extent of wind tunnel models when the war ended, but the basic design was further developed postwar in Argentina as the FMA IAe 33 Pulqui II. The name Huckebein is a reference to a trouble-making raven (Hans Huckebein der Unglücksrabe) from an illustrated story in 1867 by Wilhelm Busch.[1]
