Finally here is my protracted build of Fw190 A8 Red 11 from Jgr.10 Schlangenschwarm. The kit itself is a very easy kit to build and there is a whole hoard of aftermarket you could throw at it if you wanted to. I wish i had waited for some HGW seatbelts but at the time of building the cockpit up i couldn't afford them.

I've made a thousand and one mistakes in the building and painting phases but it is the first kit i've made for over four years. I have other Fw190's in my stash so i've learned a few things along the way. I've also tried a few new things like adding electrical wiring to the main legs and aerial and armour cable/wires in the canopy. Hopefully i haven't bored people to much with my picture heavy build thread.

So here we go. My efforts for "John's Kurt Tank Group Build"
