Eberle Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Hello everyone! I am presenting you the model of the aircraft Fw-190A8/R2, wich was flown by Feldwebel Hubert Engst, November 1944. The model was made OOB with some scratchbuilding. I made drive ropes for the canopy movement, cannon and pitot tube(hypodermic needles),details on the droptank, droptank rack, Fug25a, clear stand and a spinning propeller. The pilot figure is from CMK.I used Model Master colors. For the painting references I used profiles from the KAGERO - TOP COLORS 14; FW-190 at War book.This airplane is well documented and exists a big amount of photos, that's why color profiles are so correct. Comparison of the color profiles with the model. Photos of the finished model More photos of the finished model : http://eberlemodel.blogspot.com/2011/03/focke-wulf-fw-190-8r2-eduard-148.html Workshop : http://eberlemodel.blogspot.com/2011/03/izdelava-makete-focke-wulf-fw-190-8r2.html Regards, Aleš. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philtn Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I think some german color schemes are among the hardest to get done correctly... You nailed this one. Brilliant finish! Love it cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatcawthorne Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 A fantastic representation of the original shown in the profiles and what a superb finish, esp the mottled patterns. Did you have access to a laser cutter for the prop and stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUSTON Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Aleš, BEAUTIFUL job .. The propeller et al looks very professional... IMPRESSIVE build .... BRAVO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotics Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I'm not really into WWII stuff, but this looks AMAZING. Well done and what an attention to detail. The camo is exactly the same as the pictures. Thumbs up! Jeroen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberle Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Hello! Thank you all for the kind words! For Fatcawthorn: Clear plastic for the propeller was cutted with the OLFA circles cutter. Smaller circle for the spinner was cutted with a pair of comapasses with two needles. The plastic for the stand was cutted with the bow-saw.
