1/48 Eduard Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-5


Recommended Posts

A blast from the past, or 2014 to be precise. It took me 11 months to finish and was a journey through pain and joy likewise. schwitz.gif
Some first-timers for me like pre and post shading, Future for canopy and decals and dealing with aftermarket the big way.

The model depicts the Arado built machine of Hauptmann Egon Mayer in the spring of 1943. The rudder shows 62 kills, which he had between February 14 and April 16. He was Commander of  III. /JG 2 and a specialist in fighting bombers, shooting down twenty B-17, five B-24 and one B-26 until his death on March 2, 1944.
