JWM Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Hi, Next of old and odd Germans - from my current (2016) "production"... Focke Wulf FW 56 Stosser (Sparrowhawk in translation - the name of bird Accipiter nisus ). Kit by Heller, very old - mould from seventies of past century, was in my stash for about 25 years, only minor changies in engine inside done. Painting scheme from profile published in a book "Sojusznicy Luftwaffe" ("Luftwaffe Alles") - by J.Rajlich, Z.Stojczew, Z. Lalak. Machine from School of Advanced Piloting in Karlov, likely about 1942-43. Comment welcome Best regards Jerzy-Wojtek Edited July 29, 2017 by JWM Switch to Flickr 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyverns4 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Nice to see these old Heller models and unusual markings too! Christian, exiled to the cesspit of the world 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan B Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I've got one of these in the stash too. Yours is wearing a scheme I have never seen before and it looks great. Duncan B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The Stösser is a shapely machine and with the unusual markings you have chosen, it looks like a racer. Neat modelling job! Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi - Gents, I appreciete your comments I see, that Bulgarian scheme was a good choice.... - I was considering Hungarian painting scheme with later style insignia. For Hungarians there is much more photos but I had doubts about colours in three tone scheme and about the emblems. The best know scheme is for G.143 (with a single tone green top) but this is now in box of FW 56 by Smer, so I was thinking on G.145 or G.133 (both in three tone scheme) - here are photos: http://histaviation.com/fw_56_hungary.html http://www.avia-info.hu/Kep/Katonai2/Focke-Wulf-Fw-56-G-145.jpg and...as the result, finally I did a Bulgarian one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
