The kit supplies two 3D printed propellers, one being for the 253 series aircraft.
However, the manufacturer of the propeller is not stated.
The kit does not supply decals for the two supplied propellers.
The only photographs I've found that show what appear to be the propeller logos from manufacturers Jaray Wein and Lohner Werke.
These decals are in the LF Models Austro-Hungarian labels (C3205) set.
As I was unsure of manufacturer of he 253 series propellers, I opted to use the Lohner Werke logo.

« Last post by Alexis on July 19, 2026, 09:31:33 AM »A couple of more kits followed me home , I tried to my hardest to ignore them , didn't happen .
I heard about this company Border models but never seen their kits here at the local hobby shop . This is their take on the FW 190 A-8 in 1/35 scale and I must say it is a very highly detail kit with complete engine panels can openor closed with out having to make mods or leave parts out . I do find 1/35 scale to be odd for aircraft .....
