1/48 Eduard FW190 (with bells & whistles)
3Chordwonder replied to 3Chordwonder's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
The cockpit is perfect. The engine just very minor niggles but pretty much so. -
My second build of this first class new kit. This time, as I'd saved lots by getting over-trees only from Eduard, I added a Brassin cockpit set, Brassin engine, fabric seat-belts and some lovely Eagle Cal decals. Zero fit issues with any of the resin parts.

Beautiful build but it messes with my head!! -
This is the 4th one I've built but the first in this scheme. One of my favorite kits to put together.

The decals are generic and come in A4 sheets. That means a bit more work but it was worth it. -
Very painless and enjoyable build. Tried a few new techniques with Uschi VDR wood decals and Aviattic linen decals.

How's the cockpit transparency? I built this last year and it seemed like the mould was way past it's useful life. I ended up getting a vac replacement. Just curious.

Eduard Tiffy 1/48 (with a twist)
3Chordwonder replied to 3Chordwonder's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
More work on my days off (I'm lucky as my shifts give me 4 days on the spin to work on stuff) RAF Mid-Stone base coat (Hataka Acrylics) Dark Earth camo (Blutac method used for demarcation) Underside sprayed Azure Blue Gloss coated and decalled, with some oil panel lines in. This version had no large fuselage numbers identifying it, just the small serial numbers at the rear. -
