1/72 Tamiya Fw- 190 D-9

This is my first Tamiya kit, built about three years ago and one of my favourites.  The detail & fit was excellent with parts just "clicking" into place!  The paints are Gunze acrylics & the build was OOB with the addition of masking tape seatbelts & hypo needle gun barrels. Really a pleasure to built!!

I used floor polish for the first time on this model & was impressed by the potential of this material.  The final mat coat is gunze acrylic varnish, very sensitive on touching with bare fingers I may say.

The last photo is of my beloved cat named "Bobo" who has never caused damage on my hobby table although he likes to sleep on odd spots like on top of the T.V.!!
