Completed Airfix Focke Wulf fw190 F-8 1/72

I said so on the build thread,but after seeing those latest pics,I have to say it here too....
.... Absolutely love it Tony,a superb result,and the black and white photos look a perfect match
As for the chap on the wing,it depends on how far you want to go really...... Tamiya do a 1/48 German infantry set which has two lying down figures,mg gunner and ammo feeder guys,it would be fairly straightforward to adapt the arms and shive off the jacket to shape a torso... Just a thought

Great result Tony. I could swear the pics were of a 190 in a bigger scale!
Interesting scheme too - don’t see too many desert camouflaged 190s.
Cheers

Looks like shirtless guy is holding the antenna lead. Isn't that the dead end? Great job.

Splendid finish Tony. I also like a nice desert camo' scheme which you have created perfectly here.
