Hi to all.
This is my Dragon Mistel 2
It took me one month and half
the fw 190 was very difficult, the Ju 88 little better, but with some hard passage
I built it OOB with Gunze colore and MIG wash and pigments
Criticism are welcome
bye

Hi Antonio

Really nice! I haven't seen one of these built for a good many years. I really like the subtle mottle mottle and weathering. One small point; the Fw 190 has an early-style canopy with a tensioner that kept the aerial taught when it was open, so it would look even better if you tightened it up.

All the best

Hi Antonio, what a great build. I have the AM Tech version of the FW-190 with the JU-88 in 1/72 scale and am looking forward to trying the build. Again, what a great job. Russell

Always thought the mistel was a very cool kit. And you seem to have done an excellent job with this one. If I wasn't so much of a treadhead I might attempt one of these. The camo is impressive.

Antonio,

A super finish on a well-built challenging model subject! I hope to see more of your work.
