Another custom 1/32 Fw-190A-8
I just finished this one in the scheme of Willi Maximowitz. It was a fun scheme to do and badly needed in this scale.

Spectacular work there, Harry. It is indeed a subject begging to be covered... and I can't get enough of those nefarious-looking black-nosed butcher birds!

Dragon has already done two JG 3 schemes. Hope they cover Maximowitz eventually - they are churning out plenty of Fw 190s this year, so maybe?

Really nice work. How much time did it take you start to finish?

Thanks for the comments guys, I really don't keep track of time, but it probably took about 3 hours of actual paint/decalling, outside of drying/curing time which can take days in itself.

That IS SWEEEEEEEEEET!!! I hope we'll see this scheme in Hobby Masters series of 1/32nd Fw-190s!

Great job on another custom, Harry!
