Ok guys I'm in. I really want the challenge campaign ribbon.

Never got that FW190 prototype done. But I have other plans this time....

I'm in!

You going to finish what you started or go with new?

I'm starting new. Going to do a Eduard FW190A-6. I know this isn't them most difficult of kits but I have already trashed two attempts at an Eduard 190 and I just can't seem to build one so it seems like an appropriate challenge for me. I'm out of town this weekend, but I'll get pictures up early next week.

On a separate note - I wanted to post this in the sign up thread and somehow I goofed it up. Anyone know how to move the post?

Thanks
Mike

Just post your start up here. That'll be ok.

Ok - Time to start another one! I have to admit I have been watching the fantastic work by Les (matrixone) on his Bf-109s and the FW190F-8, and its inspired me to start up another FW190. In addition I am going to go after the challenge ribbon for this one.

I am going to start over with the Eduard FW190A-6. I know this should not be a difficult kit, but I have had nothing but problems with the two FW190D-9’s that I tried, and they are both in the trash. :vmad So I feel it’s a true challenge for me, which was the spirit of the campaign in the first place. Time to try again! Here’s the kit and aftermarket. This is the first Eduard kit I Had. I won it in a raffle and its sat in my stash ever since. Its time to bring it into the light. I’m also using Master gun barrels and pitot tube, Ultracast wheels (not pictured), Quickboost wing gun covers and decals from the same Eagle Editions set I used for my JG300 Bf-109G-6.

So there we go. Let’s see if I can finally get one of these finished!

Thanks for following along!
Mike

That's the same kit I've had so much trouble with. Good luck!
