Hasegawa's 1/32 scale
Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-5

by Luc Janssen

Hasegawa's 1/32 scale Fw 190 A-8 is available online from Squadron

With this model I wanted to present a Fw-190 A5 operated by the Luftwaffe from air bases in France during the fall of 1943 to raid southern parts of Great Britain.

Although the model was mostly built straight from the box, I changed the form of the main landing gear covers and I lowered the tail wheel. The Fw-190 had a rather simple cockpit lay-out, so I only had to add some small details.
The bomb trolley and the SC 250 bomb came from CMK and the ETC 501 bomb rack was scratch built.

To give some dynamism, I added an old figure of a German Wehrmacht lorry driver who happended to drive by and was watching the fighter.
