No matter how laborious the way was, the result is great.

Astonishing finish. The time and effort certainly paid off handsomely. That is one superb "Butcher Bird". Congrats on bringing it across the finish line.

The juice was worth the squeeze with this one! Loved the detail and the paint work you did on your FW190!

Yep, pretty cool lookin'. Great job!
What happened to the pitot? Also, painted CA glue (or the like) for the insulators?

The insulators are white craft glue which was painted afterward. I think they all have one so the pilot can read air speed, etc. Anyway, I'll go out on a limb and say it's part C57 on the instructions since that is it for the A-5, A-7 and A-8 that I have yet to assemble, LOL. Honestly looks fine w/o it though. Just thought I'd point it out if you care. Should be outboard starboard wing. |

Good call! I did miss this. Of course there is one and it states part J52. Back to the bench to add this. Luckily I rescued the parts trees from the recycling bin prior to pickup, although I could have easily made one. Of course there is no hole to install it which probably helped me overlook it.

I saw this one the other day and can't believe I didn't post anything on it then. If it's one thing I like, it's a wicked Luftwaffe paint / camo scheme and then again on a well- executed Luftwaffe paint/ camo scheme. You've managed to pull off one fantastic looking 190 Gil. My hat goes off to you once again on a job well done.  Thank you for being a part of this GB potna. It's been great to have you along. |
