| This kit made into a nice model. Great work! BTW, Tamiya or Model Master acrylic aluminum works well for me using airbrush. Brushes OK but not as neat. |

With a little work the kit could have easily been turned a big tailed 190D. I hope the manufacturer comes out with more subjects like the Fw 190D and th Reggiane which I intend to build. |

Finished! The addition of the final details: the radio aerial, the drop tank and rack, the DF loop, the small rear stick antenna and the wing aerial. |

| I do love an airbrush. I've been using it off and on for years and I will be the first to admit hat I've barely learned to use it. For painting WW 2 German aircraft it is essential. I want to do a P-51 Mustang, Urban Drew's "Detroit Miss", that I've got the decals for, but the silver scares me. |

| You've gotta love an airbrush. Mind you, this is coming from someone who still does his camo with dabbing stenciling brushes to produce soft edges. Coloring look just great. |

| I think she's one heck of a sharp looking bird Jerry, you should be proud! I'd sure be running for cover if I saw it on my tail! |

| Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-9 flown by Oberleutnant Hans Dortenmann of 14./JG26 at Varrelbusch in March 1945. |

| To me one of the most satifying things about presenting a finished model are the accurate markings. I made a lot of mistakes, but even so I think this is so far one of the most enjoyable kits I've finished. The construction methods gave me fits at the beginning, but it worked out. |

The small air just above the main intake, was a task to carve and sand but it turned out pretty well.Unfortunately I was so involved with carving and and making the details that I neglected to trial fit the canopy until after painting. It did not fit very |

| I looked at these photos on my wife's computer and you are right, the greens are green and don't look to bad, at least the color police will not get me. |

| The topside colors apear to be gray in the photos. The are in fact shades of green. Next step is Future preparing the surface for decals. |

The colors show up as gray, however the topside colos are in fact green. |

I especially like the mottled camouflage usd by the Luftwaffe. It hides a lot of papering errors, and I sure make 'em. |

| Whow! I have never heard of the german term "Burbelschnauze". I googled for it and found one hit ... A "Burbel" seems to be something like a bavarian curlicue or - spiral. |
