Yet another oldie!
This is Otaki's 1/48 FW-190A-8 that I originally started as just a 'paint mule' to try out a paint mix. One thing lead to another and, well, here you are.
I added details to the cockpit, belts from aluminum tape and [...]
Hello guys!
The brand name Airfix is a part of my memory of youth together with its mold color light blue. I bought quite a few kits of the brand, mainly of Luftwaffe, but none were completed...

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 [...]

Hi everybody, After a long abstinence I am back today with the type model, which I think I know best. I have dedicated myself to the "weekend kit" of the FW-190 A5 from Eduard in 1/72 and added a set of etched parts to it.
I have [...]
Hello, guys! The "Dora", or Fw-190 D-9, has been one of my favorite aircrafts. This particular machine ("brown 4") is a bit unusual, but famous, in that it was one of few Doras that were attached with the vertical [...]
These are the Revell and Tamiya Fw-190's in 72nd scale. Both are built with the included decals and finished as per kits' instructions. The Revell kit is quite good in fit and details but may have a somewhat small engine cowling, but for [...]
