First Look

Barracuda Studios produces a growing line of resin details under the BarracudaCast brand to compliment their BarracudaCals decal line. This release renders a nice pair of main gear wheels for the later models of the Fw 190 in 1/32. These wheels provide the smooth-tread tires on hubs used on the Fw 190A-6, A-7, A-8, A-9, F-8, and all of the Doras.

These wheels provide modestly weighted tires and are designed to work with your favorite kit. If you prefer ribbed tires, Barracudacast renders these in another set, also available on their website. For a look at these parts and other options from Barracuda Studios, stop by their website at barracudacals.com.

My sincere thanks to Barracuda Studios for this review sample!
