Thanks, wireandpaper.
I feel that the difference between a hobby and a job is that the hobby is for joy.
As you can see, the fighter is almost ready, remaining just the propeller and the "face" of the hawk.
After some search in my box of stickers, I placed the crosses over wings and fuselage. the swastika on the tails is going to be hand made.
You can see that the main difference between the FW-190D-9 and the FW-190A-8 is the engine and the length of the fuselage, but the wings and elevators are the same. The four guns in the wing were optional, some had only two.
Being this plane a test, there are some details that I would make better next time, mainly some reinforcements on wings and tail.
The support is a rectangle of transparent acetate, looking like a "v" from upside and like a shallow "w" cut from ahead. If fits under the wings.
I like the result, the differences between plastic and paper are small. so I'll continue using this technique.
The next one... I don't know yet, but it will have bombs.
