Re: Airfix Fw-190, 1/72
Brilliant job! Nice work on the wash as well.
That is great to work on models in a museum like that. I might have to check with a couple aviation museums around here to see if my club could do something like that. That is a most impressive idea.
Way to go!

Re: Airfix Fw-190, 1/72
so ummmm, I seem to have lost the spinner. I cant find it anywhere. That is what I get for cleaning my workbench! 
Anyone know of a place where I can get another one? Do I contact airfix directly?

First, take two Arizona Tea cans, an ounce of Milliput, six Hershey bars, ah never mind. I've not dealt with Airfix. Nothing in the spares or at your meeting?

...................I messed up one of my 1/24 AIRFIX Bf 109 fuselage parts and AIRFIX sent another but did ask that I pay postage................which was roughly $6 USD IIRC.
If you don't obtain another spinner.................you could make it a captured Luftwaffe aircraft............

you do not know how lucky you have to have a government and a community that engages in preserving your wealth, you have some gems in your museums composed of all those planes, my country and its governments the only thing they do is sell it.
This is great painted finish agradablea sight you gave.
