Hi Guys

Finished this last week but haven't had a chance to put it up. This is the Focke Wulf FW190D-9 in 1/72. I have had this for a good few years sitting in the stash and it is only my second completion in 30 years. Built OOB with just some seat straps added. I want to develop my skills a bit before trying all the weathering techniques such as pre shading etc. Paint is Xtracrylics which I am having a love hate relationship with. I can't seem to get the thinning right. The camo was done freehand with my Devilbis Sprite including the mottling. I also sprayed on the exhaust staining. I do want to add the aerial cable at some point but haven't found anything to do it with yet. Let me know what you think.
:cheers2

Thats lovely - the Dora 9 is probably one of it not my fave Luftwaffe aircraft - I completed an old Heller 1/72 version as my 3rd kit ever recently. Your Tamiya one looks much better!
