StyrenePilot1970 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) My take on the "Scourge of the Atlantic." Trumpeter's big bird finished last week. OOB except for the Nautilus wing spar (which the kit needs badly!), Eduard belts and some Verlinden brass machine gun ammo for the turret guns. I filled in the irregular trenches on the horizontal control surfaces and trimmed and sanded off the weird bumps on the rudder. It's big and it's finished! My 4th for the year. Thanks for looking!

DennisTheBear Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 The Fw 200 has always been one of my favourite aircraft, and you've done a bang-up job on this one! You've managed to catch the elegance of the aircraft really well. DennisTheBear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Ford Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I really like this. Didn't realise it was available on this scale. Lovely subtle weathering. Congratulations on a great build. Martin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natter Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 48th? Cripes that must be some size. Looks great though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Nice job. I have one in the stash and as the others have noted you don't see that many of them built. Another thing is that there is almost no after market products. I found and acquired some Peddinghaus decals but to be honest they don't look that fabulous to me though I've not tried them yet and probably won't! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doozer1974 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Looks great. I had considered getting the Revell one in 1/72 but thought that might be too big for my shelves.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Fantastic! Four engines in 1/48th is a bit big for me, but I certainly can't fault any of your work. The painting and weathering are superb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-32 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Very cool indeed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I agree with all the previous comments. I'd love to do this one, but the storage space and my work-area says no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
