Some small details that might be easy to miss...
On the port landing gear retraction arm, I've added a small wire to represent the tail wheel retraction cable.
Drain ports augmented with brass tubing.
Pitot tube and wing tip light.
I've added small tabs fashioned from PE sprue to the canopy. This will "pinch" the canopy in a little when it is in the open position.
The only remaining things to be done are the aerial and the landing gear indicators. Finished photos should be coming soon!

Just caught up with this John - you painting and post-weathering look fantastic - so many textures and layers - and I really do like that salt weathering technique.
So what are you thoughts on your next project?

That will be a good one!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

You're going with Hasegawa instead of Trumpeter, right?

I'm looking very much forward to the finishing shots of this beauty John. To be quite honest, I'd be commenting along the way, but I've just been learning and taking notes for my next aircraft build. I see so many good ideas in your builds. Thank you for going as in depth as you do with your WIP's dude.
Re: Hasegawa 1/32 Fw 190D-9 Brown 4
That's an excellent choice John!
