    Complimenti, Giampiero. I was curious to see the underside as I was scrolling down the page just to see whether you placed dipoles on both sides of the wing. I could never find clear evidence of their placement whether it was on one side or both. I ended up doing mine on both side as that was the instructions by Eduard.

    I'm looking forward to see this come together, just the off beat subject matter I like to tackle.

    Great build. BTW the later boxing is simplified and doesn't include the engine but its a new tool from 2017, knowing Eduard they would have corrected a few things. I'd build one again though it's still a good build and easier the second time around.

    It's a beauty

    Gaz that's the challenge that's the way I see it. Unfortunate maybe but I will not let it beat me. I had a look at my kit and it's obvious they couldn't combine some parts of the new tool.

    I have the Bodenplatte dual combo with a 190d and I want to buy a Hobby kit as they go together really well. I'll open up the box this thread has pricked my interest.

    The problems being pointed out seem the same as the fit issues with the molding in the Fw190 A's. Judging by the colour of the plastic and if I'm correct Eduard used the same sprues on parts of the plane like the wings and fuselage. They basically used a bad mold to make a new kit. Having said that I haven't come across complaints about this tooling which is interesting. I have built the original tooling of the A8 and its not perfect for sure but it wasn't terrible considering other manufacturers. Dragon kits have their problems too. Eduard made a new tooling for 190A's which corrected a few errors and fit issues.

    Dornier Do17 Z7 Night Fighter-early conversion by ICM, scale 1/72 This was an OOB build, with a little scratch building to show an engine service, I used ICM's 1/48 instructions to help with this. Very straight forward as is the case with ICM kits. I nice addition to my Dornier heavy night fighter collection. There weren't many of these conversions made and not all were painted overall black, so I picked one plane that was left with upper surfaces in original camouflage scheme as it looks more visually interesting. All the paint work on the fuselage and underside is intentional to show its hastily paint conversion. Anyway I hope you like it.

    I think I'll start on the Do217 just the right thing to break things up a bit.

    I had to pop a peak over the fence to see what was going on. Nice work 👍

    Haha almost finished Greg here's a pic of the engine work not exactly how I wanted it to end up but it's pretty close.

    You've been posting pretty frequently I hope you don't that quickly 😃

    Very nice work on the painting
  20. Walter
    Nice work

    I want to leave one engine open so to do this properly I'm going to scratch build parts 1 and 2 using ICM's instructions as a guide.

    Hi guys a little more progress .I lost some of the weathering I had previously unfortunately due to all the peeling paint problems so I've taken a different approach and adapted the weathering. Please bare in mind this is very new to me and I've not attempted these techniques before. I still want to add more modulation in colour to emphasise fading and the staffel markings need more work to make it look like the original which showed signes of over painting. Anyway this is it this far.

    Well done brother
  25. Walter
    I agree 👍
