The author use a few well-known pics and profiles made by Mr. Arkadiusz Wróbel.

I can make you sure I have known all advantages and disadvantages of both kits.And there is much more of them than you have mentioned above.Your models looks very nice, especially the Anthon Hackl's A-6 which is one of my favourite as well.But if you made A-6 the Pitot tube shouldn't have been on the wingtip, the one was moved there with A-8 wing.

Here you are some pics of right upper half of wing with corrections to panel lines, the aileron width ( also made to the lower half ).The same corrections were made to the left one.Also notice the correction to the shape of the wingtip.Of course corrections to both upper halves of the wing haven't been finished yet.When all is finished I have to use some putty to remove these incorrect and old panel lines. Any questions?

THX Daniel and Terry.

Of course, before I started engraving of hese corrected panel lines I had had to remove the MG-151 housing covers.I did it with a sharp razor blade.These housings have to be repositioned slightly back.

Nice work Wojtek. Reminds me, I need to make some of those for my old Hasegawa 1/32nd scale A8. I built it 30 years ago, and only noticed they weren't moulded onto the wings when I photographed it a few weeks ago!

Hasegawa - the wing-tops are/were smooth, with no parts in the kit at that time, even though it was the A8. I had some plan drawings, which showed the under-wing hatches, which I had to mould as these were not on the kit parts either, but the plan was a multiple sheet, from A3 to A8, and only showed the earlier top wing!
Not a problem, as the model needs some repair and corrections to the colour scheme, so I'll add all the missing bits, plus a little more detail, when I start to 'update' it.

Blimey Wojtek, talk about attention to detail!

The E. Mombeek "Sturmstaffel 1" book went in the mail to you yesterday morning...

Now, how can I convince you to make that Fine Molds Me410 your next project? That I HAVE to see!
