I have pretty much finished up these two kits. The 190 is a kit Mika gave to me last Christmas at the gift exchange. It is the old AMT 1/48 scale FW190 A Model kit. The 109 is the Revell 1/48 scale kit. I got it at Michaels for about 7 bucks. I did alot of rescribing on these kits. That was my main goal. I am learning to scribe models and I was pretty happy with the results. I use a pin vise with a needle in it. Works pretty good. Both kits are finished in the late war RLM 74/75/76. The 190 has a HD Belly Band for recognition. The spinner on the 109 was done with masking and the airbrush. MM Acrylics with some post shading and a dark wash with Phil Florys Pro Modelers wash was used on the kits. I just have to add the pitot tubes and some navigation lights and I will be done.
