If you had trouble you cant tell Trey. Outstanding work. I do believe thats the bird he flew over the beach during the Normandy invasion.Thanks for sharing...

Nice build Trey. I've heard the horror stories about that kit.

It looks like a fantastic build! I would have never thought that there were any issues with this kit, and if there was, you sure took care of it. You did a great job.

Thanks Brandon really appreciate the kind words! I would like to see your build of that Tamiya A3 be sure to post up pics! I've got a Amtech Henschel Hs-123a in the works and a revell 1/48 Dornier Do 215-e on the bench as we speak.

That looks really nice - you can't tell there was a single issue with the build process. Well done!

I have a Tamiya A3 in the stash and some Priller decals for it. After reading JG26: Top Guns of the Luftwaffe, I wanted to build Galland's 109 and Priller's 190, so it's cool to see this one done.

What's next on the bench?

I struggled to finish this ill fitting kit and it was real close to the bin several times. Lots of filler and tedious rescribing . Do'nt remember the last Fw Dragon kit I built being such a struggle but that was several years ago now. I left it mostly unweathered for a change, just wanted a cleaner simpler finish on this one. Model master enamels and Testors Dullcote finished it out. cheers Trey
