minitnkr's Airpower 87 FW190D-9

[Ian M]

A most eye catching paint job they had. They must be tiny in that scale Paul. What is the wingspan on those?

[minitnkr]

4 3/4" Tiny indeed. Just slightly smaller than the P51's 5 1/8"

[Geoffers]

Wow! tiny but hopefully perfectly formed ?

Thanks for the info on the distinctive paint job. I was thinking that it was poor camo but it all makes perfect sense now ?

Geoff.

[minitnkr]

Nicely detailed.
Sometimes referred to as the 'Parrot Circus'.

[minitnkr]

Some progress.

These two will be "bounced" by two P51s or two P47s, whichever pair comes out best.

[minitnkr]

Second P51 & second P47 arrived.

[Jim R]

Looks like your mastering the tiny beasts. As Scottie said the poor instructions and lack of location points will be something you can cope with with your experience.

[minitnkr]

Some more progress. I miss locators that work, but soldier on.

Coming along nicely Paul

[Lee Drennen]

They look good Paul.

[HAWKERHUNTER]

Somehow I missed this build Paul. Very brave to take on something so small.

[minitnkr]

Thanks guys. Ready for camo. Sensors & cannon go on last.
This my scale so not the prob. Makers paying attention in this scale is usually the issue, to say nothing about sparse to no instructions. Build sequence would be the most helpful as it prevents 'redos' where no locators make easy test fits difficult.

Paul,
Coming on nicely mate.

[minitnkr]

First coat of Tami Red, 2nd coat PollyS yellow.

[Airborne01]

Small bur perfectly formed - you could certainly get a few of those on a shelf!
