That has to be one of the best renditions of that model I've seen in many a year! Way to go Stuart, you've outdone yourself!

Pretty sweet looking! I have wanted to do a Focke Wulf for a looong while, but the camo has always stumped me. What is the airfix kit like to build?

Thanks Declan!

Considering how cheap it is it goes together well, just a few issues with poor sprue gate placement and getting everything square. I enjoyed building it.

The mottles are pretty straightforward - I used a q-tip and dabbed them on.

Cheers!

I never thought of that!
