Hi folks,
eventually I`ve ended doing this scene, I colled it as "Achtung!"
Unfortunately pics` quality is leaving to be desired, but anyway... they`re here
the model is Eduard`s WE 1/48 Fw190 A-8 of A. Bindseille. The technician from ICM kit of Luftwaffe ground personnel. I built it from box with little improvements, painted by Hubrol, Zvezda and tempera (the figure). There`re some faults, but I`ll be working on them. Sorry for the last pic
Special thanks to Charles Reading, Mike C, paul james and Chuck Wojtkiewicz for helpful advises.
cheers

Very nice FW, just to much overspray on a tail.

Aleksey,
Very nice! And a great use of humor!
An alternate title could be "This Is One Lucky Focke!"
So what if there is a bit of overspray? The paint crew just went a little crazy and they need some more practice.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Aleksey,
Very nice little scene, great to make use of a spare bomb to give some extra life to an otherwise great build.
Cheers, D

Much better than the first placement of the figure! This looks very good and natural.
I do like Keith's suggestion for the alternate title "This Is One Lucky Focke!"
Great play on words and works well with the scene.
Cheers,
Charles

That's very nice. Your figure even appears suitably nervous. I'm not sure the tail of the 190 will give him much protection if the bomb goes off!

Looks very nice
But you need to "play" more with the figure's shades and lights (sorry for my english )
Cheers Nick
