Fw 190A-3 'Black 7" photos

I think Dragon definitely does a nice job on their Fw 190s, which is probably why I just had to add another one to my collection (With more to come I imagine). Their Fw 190A-3 "Black 7" like the other 190s they put out looks pretty good. The one thing I like about the Dragon 190s is the attention to detail that they put into the miscellaneous aircraft stencils. The walk way lines on the wings could be scaled down a bit though in my opinion. As for the majority of the stencils, I am quite impressed with the detail they went into. They look to be the only ones who put the oleo compression indicator for main strut on main gear doors (Oops! stencil can also be found on Matchbox Collectibles Fw 190.). Main gear doors also have pressure indication for main tire stencil. Most impressive stencil is the Nicht Verstellen / Nicht Anfasse (Don't Move and Don't Touch) stencils on the trim tabs. I compared model to Aero Detail 6 on the Focke-Wulf Fw190A/F and they were pretty thorough on the informational stencils. I know these are just display models (a.k.a. adult big boy toys) and not museum quality pieces or kit made by an exceptional modeler, but Dragon really did a fine job on this model. Nicely detailed model and reasonably priced so no complaints here ( Ok had to add a decal to the rudder).
