Tworrs 1/32 Focke-Wulf FW190D-9 from Hasagawa

[Tworrs]

This will be my build to AlanG's memory.

[Steven000]

Nice one Garry,
will be quite an impressive model in 1/32 scale ?
Have fun, cheers

[Tworrs]

Thanks Steven, it should be a fun build.

[Tim Marlow]

Nice to see a big ‘un in the mix…..should be good Garry…

[Tworrs]

Thanks Tim

[Jim R]

Good choice. Far more parts in this than in the 1/72 scale many have chosen. Should be an impressive model.

[Tworrs]

Thanks Jim, I battle with 1/72 size and am hoping this one will be manageable.

[Valeron]

Good luck. Looking forward to seeing this whopper get built.

[Tworrs]

Thanks Mike I'll do my best.

Nice to see a D version Garry with it's inline engine housed in the longer nose as everyone else has done the radial version.
Are the panel lines engraved or raised in this kit?Looking forward to this build.

Cheers,
Wabble

[Tworrs]

Thanks Richard, it is just a bit different, so to me a little more interesting. The panel lines are engraved.

[HAWKERHUNTER]

[Tworrs]

Thanks Steve.

Nice one garry , better stock up on the red paint, cheers tony

[Tworrs]

Thanks Tony, sorry mate but I'm being thick regarding the red paint reference.

[Tworrs]

OK Tony, I was a bit slow on the red paint, I understand, now that I have actually looked at the possible colour schemes.

[Nicko]

Will you be using all those white stripe decals Garry? Should be pretty impressive...

Nick

[Tworrs]

That is the plan Nick, however time and shaky hands will tell.

[Geoffers]

Nice one Garry, good luck with your build ?

Geoff.

[Tworrs]

Thanks Geoff.

[papa 695]

Just seen this one Gary, looking forward to seeing this one coming together.

[Tworrs]

Thank you Ian.

[Tworrs]

I have started the build in the cockpit.
The fit of parts is pretty good, and no trouble was encountered.


The engine bay is pretty well detailed, even though it will all be covered over with the body work.

The well detailed pilot is assembled and will have a lick of paint before closing him up in the cockpit. It seems a pity to not be able to see the little fellow.

That is it for now, thanks for looking in.
Garry

[Steven000]

Nice start Garry ? have fun

[Tworrs]

Thanks Steven

[papa 695]

A very nice start Gary.

[Tworrs]

Cheers Ian

Here are the fuselage halves bonded together with the office included, which unfortunately covers all my lovely painting.



The tail section and wheel have also been assembled.


The underside showing the engine details before I cover it all up with the wings,

I have been very impressed with the fit of all the parts, well done Hasagawa, it has been a pleasure building this model.
That's all for now folks
Garry
