Not in my eyes! Great work Andy! Winter camouflage looks great.

Was just wondering - does this kit come with seated pilot figures? Thanks to Terry (Airframes) I've learned that the Eduard FW-190 has one. That made me curious if other Eduard kits have them.

[Crimea_River]

No, this one doesn't Ed.

Igor, thanks for the nod.

I've been on a bit of a hiatus with this kit for a while - was getting a bit tired of it actually. However, the new resin wheels arrived and, after discovering that the tires were smooth as opposed to the grooved tires seen in the vast majority of referecne photos, I promptly set to cutting grooves across the tread with a razor saw.

Pic 1 is the new set of resin wheels, unpainted, next to the mucked up kit wheel.

Pic 2 is a pic of the finished resin wheels

Pic 3 - Next up are the wheel struts which, after having been painting RLM 02 and a rusty brown colour for the oleo boots, received a copper wire brake line, tiny decals for maintenance labels, and PE straps around the brake lines. Reference photos show the upper brake line to be of brass tube and the lower section a flex hose, hence the colour change.

Thanks for checking in.

[Airframes]

Nice work mate. BTW, the upper brake pipes were copper tube - brass doesn't like hydraulic fluid!
