This time, I have decided to build from my collection the FW190 A8/R2 of Eduar 1:48 the Old Mold.
All I can add about Eduard's old FW190 mold, is the lack of Riveting, which is immediately visible. Another point that this old mold has is that it has a very decent engine and all the weapons systems to be seen.
Last but not least, there are some points during the assembly that can create a headache, those points are:
Flame arrester frame when we are going to close the two halves of the fuselage, it will collide with the back of the instrument panel and it will be time to make some adjustments.
If you want to close off the wing gun bays, know that you're going to have some trouble getting those parts right.

The rest is a kit that fits so well that it borders on the impossible.
Seeing this, we understand why Eduard, in his desire to improve his models more and more, decided to make a new, much improved mold for all Anton versions of the FW190.
