My models....

Decided to take out the pilot, have not decided what to do next. It is a toss up FW 190 A8 1/32 (All 190's are badass) or Dornier Do 335 Arrow 1/48 (why cause I have never seen one). I got 202 models in the boxes to choose from but i think I have it narrowed down to those two lol

Thanks guys I appreciate all the kinds words. I started a FW 190 A8/R2 "RED 1" Tamiya 1/48 scale. IDK what it is with the FW 190 but ever since the museum I voluneer at got ours "White 11" (Oblt Georg Schott of JG.1 paint scheme), the one I am standing with in my avatar...... I have heard her engine (inches away) , watched her fly, and see her every week, I love the FW 190! I think it is the toughest plane of WWII, it is simply BADASS!

This plane was all set except I snapped the canopy so I got the replacement from Germany and here it is. I built the "Hurribomber" version with the four 20mm cannons.

Built that same one a few years back Dave. Althougth a lot of the pictures have disappeared, there was a lot of good discussion on the colour scheme of Bretschneider's crate here

Hey thanks alot I forgot to mention I put custom brake lines on it too, with anything in life you get better as you go along. So i have the EDUARD 1/48 scale FW 190 A-6 just like the one at my museum. The owner tasked me with building that 190....maybe one more 190 and I will jump on it and present it to the owner of the museum. For now it is a DO 335 Arrow. Strange aircraft but really cool looking and for a piston driven bird...it hauled ass.
 
I was asked to do a PBY5A Catalina in the same paint scheme as the one in the Military Aviaition Musuem in which I volunteer at....here she is. Next is a Hawker Typhoon MK 1B and the next is one I REALLY love is the FW 190 D9 Barkhorn.
