Focke-Wulf TL-Jäger "Flitzer" Revell 1/72


Recommended Posts

A quick and rewarding built is this model of the Fw TL (Turbo-Luftstrahl)-fighter project. I think this is one of those Revell kits which were developed and produced by a Korean contractor (does anyone know details about that?). It has a combination of recessed and raise panel lines. Some of them are a bit fine, so I'd recommend to rescribe them before painting so you can get clearly defined pin wash results (if you so wish). I didn't do that so the wash doesn't show off all the detail that well. Paints are vallejo model air and some Revell and Humbrol enamels for details. The canopy is not that great, so maybe a pilot would have been nice too.

It is a rather small plane. Sopwith Triplane for scale.

Nice model. I keep meaning to read up on these late war jet designs, there seems to be rather a lot of them and I don't how many were viable.

Thanks! This one made it even into a wooden mock-up. So, as compared to other paper projects this was "on the brink to be build".
