Over the years I have built many plastic models of the Fw 190 “Wurger” (Butcher Bird)and its many. I decided to do Faber’s Fw 190A-3 in 1/24th scale using the Guillows 502 kit, which is a good kit and with some added detail and a few minor corrections can be turned into an excellent Fw 190A-1,2,3,4 and with a little more work can be turned into the Fw 190A-5,6,7,8,9 as well as the F and G variants. It just takes some research and a little elbow grease.

Did you win that Dave Diels kit on Ebay?
jerry campbell14-Apr-14 14:48
Yes, and I want to thank you and Dave for all the help.

Glad you got it!

By the way the Ta 152 is the final development of the Fw 190. The kit is a Ta 152H-1 pressurized high altitude fighter, but should be able to be converted to the Ta 152C standard fighter.

jerry, was the ta-152 a variant of the d-9?
jerry campbell14-Apr-14 17:33
Brian, yes and no, the Ta was a further development of the Fw 190 and many components of the D-9 were used, but I don't think it would be called a further development of the D-9. Many aviation authorities have claimed that the Ta 152H-1 was the finest fighter of WW2.
