Hi all
Back in The Smoke and a treat lay in store when I open the hanger doors at Castle Aeroscale this morning - the latest addition to Eduard's 1/48 scale range of '190s:
It looks like it'll be a real beauty! - and apart from 5 really varied colour schemes, the set of stores that Eduard have included should get everyone drooling. Covering no less than 3 pages of the instructions, there are multiple variations of bombs, rockets and cannons. The bombs and rockets feature etched tail fins:
There's an Fw 190 Campaign proposed, but I don't think I'll be able to wait that long before getting stuck into this one!
All the best

Hi Terri
Yes - apart from the tail fins for the bombs and rockets, there are PE instrument panels and seat harness etc.
All the best

I first saw this last week when going through the index listings at their site and thought, " what an odd place to debut this kit!" Damn- I've already got two Tamiya and three Eduard.... but how can I resist?

This will look good in the Butcherbird Campaign. I am sure one will end up in there.
