That happened to be my first Hasegawa kit in over 30 years of building models...
25
September 19, 2025
Accompanied by a selection of aftermarket parts like photoetch, metal antennas, masks, gun barrels

The Eduard cockpit upgrade looks very convincing, too bad not much will be visible afterwards

The overall fit was very good, just the engine nacelles required some putty

Landing light reflectors were made from punching out 0,2mm tin foil
32
September 19, 2025
Main landing gear PE doors were for a different version apparently. Used kit parts instead
33
September 19, 2025
Besides the FuG 220 "antlers" on the nose this particular plane had additional radar equipment with aerials on both wings

Factory camo painted, RLM75 on RLM76
35

First attempt at the "squiggles"
36
September 19, 2025
Did not like the result in the end. The green shade was way to light and translucent
37
September 19, 2025
Second attempt
38
September 19, 2025
Chose a darker, more opaque green this time

Finished earlier this year - my first Hasegawa kit! Subject is a Junkers 88 nightfighter Version G-1 equipped with FuG-220 Radar antlers on the nose and additional antennae on the wings. Airplane was oversprayed with green squiggles to hide under the trees from those pesky recon planes...
