The kit is well detailed and the fit is excellent.  The only areas to pay some attention are the wing to fuselage joints.  The only complaint I really had with this kit is that the canopy can not be left open.  If you like to open the canopy you would need to cut away at the frame which is molded to the fuselage, which is really bad because the cockpit detail is extremely good. The kit is built as an A-8.

I painted the interior RLM 66 black grey.  I utilization Airwaves accessories No72020 for seat belts.  I sprayed the insides of the fuselage, wheel wells and wheel covers with RLM 02 grey.

I painted it with Gunze H417 (RLM76) as it was on Bad Aibling (Spa Town Bavaria) may 1945.
