I wish I knew about his a while ago! Eduard releases impressive add-ons for GWH Fw-189A
In the “I wish I had this a few months ago” catagory is the new photo etch sets for the Nightfighter Fw 189A-1 originally sold by Great Wall Hobbies. I started this build on The Modelling News a while ago and it’s quite a nice little kit by itself – then this turns up ! Absolutely making what detail there was look pretty basic in comparison - these three sets turn your lovely little nightfighter into a show stopper!

Review - Scale Aircraft Conversions 1/32 P-51D Landing Gear (Tamiya kit)
Well it is here and in 1/32 - what a winning combination! Indeed I own the kit and
I am extremely impressed with it – but on doing a bit of research I did however
find out that there indeed were a few areas of consternation with the kit with
the general public – the wings - riveted or not?, injection marks in the MG bay
doors and a little issue about the landing gear – well on a kit so good these
aren’t such a big deal – but on a kit so good why not shoot for the moon and
make everything the best it can be? Let’s see if these metal landing gear
replacements from Scale Aircraft Conversions make this into the perfect kit
which we all hope to own...
I could watch this all day!
