Thanks Doug! Will do!
Sounds great leemitcheltree. I've done that a tiime or two myself where I went looking for a kit that wasn't there. Let me know on which one you decide to do and I'll post it in the intro post.

Nuts!! I just realized that my Eduard Fw-190-A5 is missing in action - I must have offloaded it during my move to the U.S. - bugger.
But.....I've got a Dragon Ta152 C-0 and a Hobby Boss Ta152 C-1/R14 in the stash......one of them will have to do.
Cheers, LeeTree Remember, Safety Fast!!!
Its running all next year, so you have plenty of time.

I really wanted in on this build but no one within 200 mi of me carries a plastic model and i dont have one in the stash. I do have a few 109's though. If I build it backwards does that make it a 190? Hopefully I can get one ordered by the end date.

JOE RIX Bish I found one of those on E-Bay. cgi.ebay.fr/.../290321760273 I have bought from these before. They do post outside the UK, but not sure what the cost is. If it would be to much, let me know. Bish - Thank You so very much for finding that. I went ahead and picked it up. Cost me $15.60 but it is worth it . Now to order up the resin seats and wheels from Squadron and I should be ready to fire out of the gate. OK, maybe not fire out as I've got to get my Tiger I done for the Steel Cats GB before I can overly serious on the F-8.

My pleasure. I wish i had seen that one before i got mine. The one i have is the older none coloured set. Can't wait to see your build.
Ok everybody. It's been a while since I posted on here and apologize for that. Had things going on with my sons science project and baseball playoffs. Will get back on here tomorrow and catch up. Thank you all for your patience. No abandonment here folks! I'm all jazzed up about this.

Bish Joe, glad you got those canopies. If your looking for set 72274, i don't think its been OOP for that long, i got one for my F-8. I will dig my out and have a look, but i think apart from the bomb fins, i am not sure its much differance from an A-8 set.

Just ordered this...
and this...
Oh Yeah, I'm amped up to get started. I've received Squadron canopies for both the standard and blown versions and Eduard masks for both so I can build either of the versions on my decal sheet. Still looking for the OOP Eduard PE set for the Hase 1/72 F-8.
Yeah... along with the initial "Dora" D9 to get going, I also want to do the A-6 Black 7 flown by Josef"Pepi" Jennewien at the Battle of Kirsk. This craft has an interesting mottled camo pattern and if I have read the bio correctly was not his assigned aircraft (Black 5, I think) He had flown 271 missions and shot down 86 enemy, when on the July 27 1943 he made a forced landing behind enemy lines and was never heard from again. Yup, plates getting full being PZL has extended the ME109 build and Gamera is doing part II of the Japanese GB. Chawing at the bit...

It will be nice to build something that doesn't wear a Red star on the wings, run on kerosene or take up my entire work space....
I'm still in. Given the other stuff I've got on the bench, I'm guessing I'll either be doing a Tamiya F-8 with markings stolen out of the Eduard kit, a Tamiya D-9 as a captured Soviet Dora, or the HobbyBoss Ta 152C-0.

Yes, my Wurger stash is growing larger every week it seems, can't wait to start here.
With all the fun and frolics going on round here lately, i think we may have got distracted. So just thought i would bring this back to your attention and hope your all still looking forward to this GB. I know Mustang is itching to get going. And i am trying my hardest to get my other builds completed to start this ASAP.
A couple of torpedo droppers would be nice. I like the look.
Nathan T Anyone here built the Hobbyboss Ta 152C? Reviews look sweet, and I see they just released the torpedo carrying boxing. I'm thinking of adding that kit for this build. Its definitely a much newer tooling than the Dragon kit.

The torpedo carrying kit would have been my back-up plan if I couldn't find the Fw-190 A8 and my decals, but only the torpedo carrying version is one that has my interest.I wouldn't mind at all if you would build one to, the more we have the better!With regards, Ninetalis.

I think the Squadron Walk around dora book shows the d-9 in the museum which has the d-13 wings attached. If so just remember there is a difference between the two wings. I'm hoping for some of Erik Mombeek's JG 1 and JG 4 books for christmas, as they have some sweet pics of both 190 Sturmbocks and 109s.
Thanks Nathan...I'll look into the Broken Eagles book. Had'nt seen that one yet. Just got my copy of Walk Around Fw190-D. Walk around #10, Squadron/Signal publications. Also a short but good book, has many intact Doras, along with numerous "broken eagles" along with some very cool illustrations. An added plus is a RLM color chart near the back, in with the illustrations. Joe I also have the Fw190 in action, very nice book and lots of great info! Gotta love Amazon! Take care all...
I just got a sweet reference book on the Dora. Broken eagle's Fighter pictorials. Its short but sweet. Got it for 3 dollars used off amazon. Its got great pictures of both wrecked and intact doras, many of which I haven't seen before. I'm trying to collect all the broken eagle series.
Well folks it's been a few days since anybody has posted on here so I figured why not post something myself just to let you know that I am (as are alot of us out there) still fired up about all of this here. I now have 3 reference books to draw from which are 1) Fw190 In Action , 2) Focke-Wulf Fw190 with text by Robert Grinsell and illustrations by Rikyu Watanabe (thanks to Rigidrider) and 3) Aero Detail #5 Fw190. I also have a DVD entitled, "A Butcher Bird's Tale" on the way. I've never seen it but hey whats one more reference? Anyhow just still finishing up the 109 for that GB and taking it easy. Got Thanksgiving and Christmas to get through yet. Take care you all and will be seeing you on here, Joe
