Hey, here I present you my last build: Fw190A-5, Eduard 1/72 ProfiPack. I had added some extras to this build, her corresponding Flaps, some more details in PE, and the engine and fuselage guns, all from the same manufacturer. This is, for now, my very most difficult build because of the tiny of this size. The engine and the guns are so small for my big rude fingers! It was a challenge.... Well, I'm happy with the result. I have had some mistakes at the time to mount the engine, it was a lot of try and failure. The upper cowling cover also is a little bit bent from the correct line. Also there is some silvering in the decals. But it is not bad at all, for my short expertise. I have in my stash 4 more models in this scale, but I think I'm not gonna buy any other more at 1/72 because of mi sight!

Hey guys, Finished this guy last night. A Focke Wulf 190 D9 of Jagdverband 44, it's iconic striping serves to distinguish the plane by friendly AA gunners as it was employed to cover the Me 262 when it was vulnerable during take off and landing (I think). I am quite happy with it. The kit is very good, nice crisp moulding, standard Tamiya. The plastic is maybe overly soft if I was to be really picky, but good to work with all the same. A small kit, still relatively well detailed for it's size even with everything being on one sprue. Also the decals are pretty thick (All except the crosses on the underside of the wings that are apparently very thin and I wish I had just painted because the white is still a bit visible) I painted the striping on, started with a white base across the whole underside, then with thinly sliced Tamiya tape (using the decals as reference) to mask the white stripes (this plane should be the band's logo). Then with the red, I was careful to under thin the paint for spraying so it came out quite thick and thus didn't run under the tape (It actually worked! I know I was surprised as well) Apart from that it was just a pretty standard little Fw! I recorded the full build of this which will also be posted along with the SU-2 and Norwegian Harrier GR1 that I recently shown on here to my Youtube channel as soon as they're pasted together (MURRODELS) Thanks for reading, what do you's think? Hope you's catch the videos once they're out, cheers!
