Your gaining quite a collection of Axis and Allied aircraft in 1/32 Toshi.  As always, I'm going to enjoy watching this build.  Scott

 

Yes, and I'm planning on a next build that is unique and unusual.  So far, I have a Kitty Hawk 1:32 P-39 Airacobra.  I just received a mask that came with a PE seatbelt of which is made with material connected to the PE buckels for realistic purposes.  Now I'm waiting on a Eduard interior colored PE for the P-39.  Thanks for the visit!

Fit and finish for this Fw 190 kit is amazing.  Revell of Germany did a great job on it's planning of this model.  This is where I'm at for now.  I hope you enjoy the build.  Thank you all for the read and replies, it's greatly appreciated.

Detail cockpit parts are great.

For the first time in weeks, the sun finally came out of hiding hence the clear photos.  I appolagize for the last couple of builds as it was way too dark as well as being photographed on my bench.  That was the only area with viable lighting.  As for the next two pics, it's just a dry fit.  It literally snapped together.

Wow toshi  wish my hobby store would stock that kit ..getting anything from these guys is like pulling teeth. .yea thay have no problems getting hi priced kits in 1/32 ..like airfixs tempest and mossy. .but noooo .all thay say is my broker can't get that model. YEAHHH  RIGHT ..!!! I say .

I had to drive some 35 to 40 miles to get to that hobby store.  Worth it?  I think so.  Would I do it again?  Probably not.  Most of what I've found there can be purchased online and cheaper if you search for it.  I feel bad for you that your hobby store won't order this particular kit for you.  It's just doesn't make sense.  The more your hobby shop caters to you, the better profit they can make plus, they keep you happy and having you as a return happy client is key.

With saying that, so far this kit is fantastic.  Everything fits together well and is thoroughly planned out.  Revell of Germany did a great job to this kit.  Thank you for following my build, it's greatly appreciated.

Here is the other kit from Hobby Town USA, the other being the Mosquito.  The engine seems like a kit in itself.  This looks like a fun build, I hope everyone enjoys following this build as much as I will building it.

I'm planning to do a inflight version utilizing the stand.
