B-26B “I****s Delight” 575th BS / 391st BG

Hasegawa Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-3 1/48
Hi to all, here is another one from me. Before this build, I had fear that I will ruin all of the work if I try to add some weathering effect to the model, so I have decided to push my limits regarding this important process in this hobby. [...]
