My first "Dora" Tamiya 1/48 Focke Wulf Fw190 D-9


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

So 2/3rd through my Fieseler Storch build I started work on my first Dora. The main thing I was experimenting with, was post shading in a multiple colour camouflage scheme as I had never done this before. Nothing added to this kit, out of box, only opened up the gun barrels on the nose and replaced the wing barrels with stainless steel rod. Paint used was Model Master enamels for the camo and Tamiya for the interior and wheels, Vallejo for the "Defence of the Reich" bands....oh and I forgot to put a wash on after I clear coated it! Doh!!! :mental:

Things I learned:

1) Yellow paint takes a gazillion coats to cover....

2) There is a reason why you have to wait for a Dora's wheels to dry after you stuck them on, otherwise they turn out all wonky like mine.

Please criticize away, especially about the post shading.
