Fw 190A-8 Update sets

1:72 Eduard Brassin

Eduard's latest profipack and Royal Class boxings of their 1/72 Fw 190A-8 are excellent in their own right, however if the modeller really wants to up the ante then the following sets are available.

Fw 190A8 Engine

This set contains a complete resin engine for the Fw 190, along with the exhausts, engine bearers and cowlings. There are also photo-etch parts for the engine. The engine is a complete model in its own right.

Fw 190A Propeller

This set consists of resin parts to replace the kit prop. There is a central control hub to which the three separate blades must be attached. In order to get this right a jig is provided. A new resin hub is provided as is the fan which site behind the prop. All together this set should provide a boost to the sharp end of your 190.

Conclusion
Given this is 1/72 scale the quality of the casting is first rate. Which ever set, or sets you use should enhance your model, particularly if doing any kind of diorama. Highly recommended.
