Some good choices there Ian, but hands down the green 2 is the most unusual. Looking forward to see it build

yep definitely 'Green 2' for me, Pedro.

I can get the old Tamiya A-3 'over the counter' here for roughly the same as y'all in the civilised world pay for it, the Eduard kit I know is fantastic, however with postage down here to Middle Earth you can add around 75% to the cost... not willing to pay that no matter how brilliant it is.

Ian.

That's a good argument. Do get the corrected landing gear - the leg is too short and the wheels are too small in the Tamiya kit.

Sort of a 'non-update':
The NZ distributor for Eduard contacted me yesterday - the shipment has arrived and the 190A-8 That I ordered is on its' way - In time, I'll order some Eagle Cals for it, would love to do the Schlange-Schwarm scheme...

I agree with @johnb, @ij001 : the scheme is great!

Intended to build it with the pilot in-place, but the figure simply doesn't fit in the cramped Fw190 'pit, must've been a generic piece leftover from the 109E kits.

@ij001 - the "Schlangenschwarm" decals do look good on a 190A-8. You're going to really like the kit.

If you have a "parted out" ex-Trimater then DML then everyone e lse Fw-109A, the landing gear in that kit is the right size and you can easily mate it to the Tamiya kit.
