With so much great internal detail in Zoukei-Mura's Uhu, Dade Bell couldn't resist showing it all off with a cutaway build.

Thanks Julian! This is the kind of silly project that keeps my 1/250 Musashi from getting finished six years on...

funny you should mention that build Dade
Brilliant builds you did over at MSW, inspired me to buy the Haruna and get messing with PE in a big way. This Uhu is really a mind blower though, I love it,

Even without the cutaways it's a outstanding build of a rather difficult kit. But with your cutaways to show off the detailed interior, it's just that much better.

Splendid. How much AM or scratchbuilt additions are included? The ZM kits have so much internal detail already.

Thanks guys! Bill, for AM stuff... it has color PE dials in the cockpit, Eduard's fabric seat belts, brass gun barrels, brass landing gear dampers, brass antennae. I also have the brass replacement stuff for the radar array in front, but decided the plastic looked good enough, I'll save the brass stuff for another kit that might need it more. But as far as stuff like the engine, it's all stock (even the wiring) with my only modification being cutting it all up "creatively" to show off the innards (pistons, etc.).
