1:48 FW-190A8 by Hasegawa
#1

Hi all, I though I'd better contribute something to this community which has given me so much over the years, so here goes. I've done some smaller miniatures but his is my first proper attempt at an aircraft as well as my first use of an airbrush.

It doesn't compare with most of the stuff on here but I'm more or less happy with it. That said I've learned a LOT of lessons for my next build (the sharp eyed amoung you may notice my errm... 'custon faded' canopy)

As far as the kit goes the quality was descent, and quite fun to build, typical of Hasegawa I believe. I must admit I had a bit of trouble trying to get the right wing halves to come together at the tip, took all my tricks and still looks shoddy!

Unfortunately the decals all come out great except for the cross on the right wing, which is a bit bubbly. If someone could tell me how to stop that from happening I would give you many points Big Grin

My next project will likely be the Focke-Wulfs partner in crime, a late war 109. Ill put it up if it ever gets done

Thanks for reading, post your comments!
