1/48 Eduard Focke Wulf 190D-11

This is the weekend edition of the kit so no photo etch frets included but there still is enough plastic to make this into a great looking model.

Only one choice of marking as per the box art but quite an interesting one as it represents white<58 which was used for specialized training of flight leaders at Bad Worishfen before it became Red 4 of JV44 fame.

The kit then was built straight out of the box save the Tamiya tape seatbelts and although it needed a little more care to build than a Tamiya kit, it still was a straight forward build none the less.

I have the Weekend editions of the FW190D-9 and Fw190D-13 to build sometime and I am sure that these too will build into great looking models.

I used Xtracrylix RLM76, RLM 81, RLM82, RLM83 for the main colours and Tamiya Brown/Black acrylics for the weathering and post shading and chrome for the under surface panels.
