Here I present my work done on the Eduard Weekend Edition 1/48 of FW190 A-8 model kit.  I do a weekend edition kit does not include photoetch, the plastic has the same quality as the Profipack version.

The kit has very good fit, you just have to work a little to fit the wings to the fuselage. I highly recommend this kit.  It was painted with Tamiya acrylic paints, exhaust fumes are airbrushed and general dirt oils.

This kit comes ready to carry the engines and machine guns in sight, which gives great views. I opted for this solution. The engine cover I made from scratch with the metal coming a can of beer.

I wanted to dedicate this work to my companions of the AIME, Model34, 1/72 and Yoryi of Spain.
