Hasegawa FW 190-A8 132
My grand kids keep saying that they keep getting better and betterer,well that's the same for me in this case. All of my builds are improvements over the subsequent builds which means that I have a lot to learn. One of my many faults is [...]
Another #$%^#@! Hasegawa Fw-190?
Yeah, another Hasegawa Fw-190 - it's what happens when you buy a stash of kits that were previously owned by a guy who liked the Fw-190 as much as I do. This is the limited-run Fw-190A-9, last of the radial Wurgers. markings from the kit [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 Fw 190A-8, JG 54 Robert “Bazi” Weiss
My first Hase 190. Strong points are a nice overall shape, excellent very fine panel lines and, OMG, if you simply assemble the landing gear struts, everything lines up! (Are you listening Bunny boys?) Weak points of the Hase Wurger are [...]

When the Allied armies landed on the Normandy peninsula on June 6, 1944, there were fewer Luftwaffe aircraft to oppose the invasion than had been available two years earlier at the time of the Dieppe Raid. JG2 - the unit assigned to the [...]
Another 1/48 Hasegawa Fw-190A-4
Another project from the stash of the modeler's estate sale. This is what happens if you fail in your assignment to build everything in your stash: your wife puts them in the estate sale cheap and somebody like me comes along and gets to [...]
Focke Wulf Fw-190 A5 DML 1/48th scale Luftwaffe WWII
This Butcher Bird is older than the B-26K, built around 92, it was my first attempt on building a rather complicated Trimaster kit. Reading a review in Scale Modeler pointed out some of the fussiness in the project. But in the end a [...]
1/48 Eduard Focke-Wulf FW-190A-8
Here's one that i built a few years ago, when the Eduard kit was released. I remember there being some online angst regarding the thickness of chord around the vertical tail empanage. I found it to be pretty much accurate based on my own [...]
Fw190
This is one of the few Axis aircraft I have built. I'm not much of a historian, I just build what's in front of me, so if anyone can fill in the blanks jump in.
It is a 1/72nd Revell of Germany kit.
For those who don’t want to do 1/32 Fw-190s
Everybody always wonders, what will happen to their stash when they're gone? Will SWMBO just trash it? Well, not necessarily. CINC Le Chateu du Chat likes to go to estate sales. She has found lots of good stuff at great prices, as have [...]
1/24 Trumpeter Fw-190D-9
Recently there appears to be a lot of interest in this kit, which first appeared in 2004, with lots of commentary about its problems, with several afttermarket gurus coming to the rescue with lots of high-priced resin. Back in 2004, there [...]
