First post here so i might as well pick my latest completed piece! The Hobbyboss V18 experimental version of the FW series. Bit of a quick blurb on it..
The FW190 V series was the development to the FW190 to resolve its achilles heel, high [...]
Just arrived on my front porch
Just arrived. Tore into it like a ravening wolf.
A more detailed review will be up at M2 next week. But right off, the surface detail is amazing, more petite even than the recent Fw-190 and Tempest, if such is possible. For those who say [...]
Eduard 1/72 Fw 190 A-8/R8
I thought I was done with Fw 190’s for a bit after I had finished my recent build of “Priller’s Würger” for this year’s EagleQuest. At that event I was discussing with a friend, Jerry Hendrickson, the “fun” I had closing up [...]

Focke-Wulf 190A-9, 1945

I added details to the cockpit, belts from aluminum tape and [...]
Würger sporting serpents

So, this is virtually the first Airfix that [...]
Priller’s Würger…D-Day, 6 Jun 1944
Eduard 1/48 Fw 190 A-8 (old mold).
I first saw “The Longest Day” as a 14-year-old airplane nut when the movie first came out in 1962. The scene showing Pips Priller’s D-Day strafing run on SWORD Beach has stayed with me since. In [...]

Monogram 1/48th FW-190: Almost out-of-the-box
I wanted to do something relaxing, so I grabbed this old Monogram FW-190 from the stash in my garage. It also fits my keep-it-simple modeling philosophy. My plan is to build it mostly out-of-the-box and just concentrate on a decent build [...]
On This Day…June 2nd.
Hampden TB.1 (AD852) UB-N - of 455 Squadron, RAAF Leuchars, Scotland, 2nd June 1943. Great angle to see that distinctive Hampden shape.
And above, same aircraft and day, in flight.
On June 2nd, 1943, one of the most astonishing [...]
