Phil Podmore Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Mal - you are the absolute master of these Fw190s I am in awe of your skills and I actually think that you are the modeller I aspire to emulate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 looks great mal! Question, how far "should" the MG Muzzles protrude from the gun cowl? Them inner MG 151 them on the wingroot, approx 9mm, and them outer MK 108 aprox 4mm...since it in my Eyes looks Close enough, as ive used this ilustration as a reference from theese books, as i really recomend them, they are fantastic, they cost a bit, but hey if youre in for them Wurgers....get them.... and here is a reference... /Mal Wow...thanks and im very flattered and honored, as ive only builded 3 Wurgers now...but admit...im stuck with em, mysterious ones so much to lear..... as im awaiting the Revells new tool Fw190F8 that is supposed to hit them shelfs soon. /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) thanks Mal, what about the ones behind the motor infront of the windscreen, MG17's? Your wurger's are amazing, your work is part of the reason why I've tackled a 'Dora, while no where near as nice as yours Im proud of her and cant wait for the Revell 'F' release either!

Mal_Belford Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Im indeed glad you ask... Them FW 190 A8 R2 they removed them MGs on the cowling due the fact the Heavy armour plates and them MK108, so they were removed, some did get them covers over them channels....some did not, so it is a matter of interpret. Increaseed armour meaned increase weight, also some had them armour over the canopy, but after and later many removed them casue the reduced visibility (condense). as can be seen on my oter A8R2...note them armoured glass and them covers for them MGs. So there is variants on them as far as i know and not exact sience.... /Mal Edited April 13, 2015 by Mal_Belford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Forgot to say........ This is my interptret of this wurger...with them armour just got attached and them landing gear adjusted to the increased weight Before patch painted...late war... Werner Conradt...JG300....this is what i had in mind...but with a twist Mals Way Maybe not 100 Percent right...but in my Eyes a cool bird and Close enough....to have in the glass cabinett. /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal_Belford Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Thanks for them fine comments..... Yes and ill return later with a Wurger, but as ive said im waiting for the Retooled Revell Fw190F8, that looks very promising, yes....Mals upgrades on that one to..... Next stop a base plate for this one, since late war, no happy....sparse on Everything....and all that..loosing war...ill do a base for this one.... Idea is Concrete base and grey/Brown grass between and worn service cart as this one i did earlier....and yes couple of faces that havent slept in a while and no hope expressions.... As im going to do a rerun on this one....but maybe grey one instead and WORN and rusty.... /Mal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redman Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Hi Mal, I have followed all of the posts of this thread with great interest and it has been very useful as to what can be done with skill and patience! I am not sure I have as much of either as you do. Your model is excellent and you do a very good WIP thread. With an impressive ability to communicate- your 'Swinglish' is brilliant. Thank you for posting your work. Andrew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
