Hey jay12472, I ordered my FW190 A8 last week and expected it here by the weekend. It hasn't showed yet. Looking forward to starting that one as the Butcher Bird is one of the top 5on my WWII props list. Hope to see updates of your progress.

Hey Jason, I just got the kit yesterday, It's the Tamiya 1/48 FW190 A8. Here's a pic. I plan on getting started soon. I still need to get a few more Luftwaffe colors. Mobious.

Hello Jay, The Condor is impressive. A large aircraft with a good range if I'm not mistaken. Nice job on the interior and the exterior is looking good as well. Jmart, Glad to hear that operations will begin shortly from the "Mancave". LOL Hope the water heater trouble didn't cause any problems with the supply depot(stash). Hope to get a start on the FW by the weekend. I think I have all the colors in stock.![Confused [%-)]](/emoticons/icon_smile_perplexed.gif) The Tamiya color guide calls out XF-22 RLM grey mixed with XF27 Black green at a ratio of 3:2, Is this supposed to be RLM74 Grey green? Mo

Best investment I ever did: buy some heavy duty plastic garage shelves at home depot... but used them as "pallets" for the stash (and other stuff), bringing everything 2-3 inches off the floor... saved almost everything from getting wet :)

J, your condor is coming along very nicely! I can not wait to see ehr all built up and painted. I have always loved the lines of that big bird! Very sinister, yet graceful.

Jay, that is coming along real well! I really like the "squiggle" camo over the dark green on the fuselage sides.

Mein gott! Mein gott!!! Wow! Excellent! Love it! I won't say much more! ![Smile [:)]](/emoticons/icon_smile.gif) By the way, lads!!! 9th April is coming rapidly. Then the invasion of Norway started. So in two months, Norway will be totally occupied. If we were in 1940, that is. As said, it was the first military operation German had where all branches were included. Big day for military history, bigger day for this GB! ![Pirate [oX)]](/emoticons/icon_smile_pirate.gif)

Historically, it was the first true combined arms invasion ever attempted, using seaborne and airborne forces by any nation- the shape of things to come. Airfield and port seizures, follow on forces, etc.
