This makes me want to go and crack open one of the 12 Eduard Fw 190D's I have, just patiently waiting for me to finish the current projects!

its a great kit Harrison, though a little fiddly when it comes to putting the two halves together

thanks all for the kind words

Interestingly, I've only ever built DML/Dragon Dora's in 1/48... I have a single Tamiya Dora on the way (I just want to see how 'easy' it falls together, compared to the Dragon) and a heap of Eduard's as Ive been able to get them for the same price as a Tamiya/Dragon Dora's - and they look good built!

Really keen to start one of the Eduard kits now!
