Really well built, painted and photographed Tony.
Pete

Simply brilliant Tony!!

No fair...........every one else used up all the good adjectives!!! I am however, in total agreement with said group! :thumb2: :thumb2:

That’s an outstanding job Tony.

Very nice model, Tony.
One question, if I may: it's just my impression or that 190, being stationed in Piacenza, was painted with Regia Aeronautica paints? Even the scheme, to my eyes, is more Italian than German.

Very nice build and photos.
The committee thought so as well and have given you the,

Congratulations Tony.

Thanks a lot guys really appreciated, and thank the committee john . You may have got a point there Andrea , using local regia aeronautica colours would make sense . Cheers tony

Sorry Tony, I thought I’d commented on this.
Stonking build! The icing on the cake is the B & W comparison pictures. Top notch stuff.

I said so on the build thread,but after seeing those latest pics,I have to say it here too....
.... Absolutely love it Tony,a superb result,and the black and white photos look a perfect match
As for the chap on the wing,it depends on how far you want to go really...... Tamiya do a 1/48 German infantry set which has two lying down figures,mg gunner and ammo feeder guys,it would be fairly straightforward to adapt the arms and shive off the jacket to shape a torso... Just a thought

Great result Tony. I could swear the pics were of a 190 in a bigger scale!
Interesting scheme too - don’t see too many desert camouflaged 190s.
Cheers

Looks like shirtless guy is holding the antenna lead. Isn't that the dead end? Great job.
