Rikywarbirds Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Hey, here I present you my last build: Fw190A-5, Eduard 1/72 ProfiPack. I had added some extras to this build, her corresponding Flaps, some more details in PE, and the engine and fuselage guns, all from the same manufacturer. This is, for now, my very most difficult build because of the tiny of this size. The engine and the guns are so small for my big rude fingers! It was a challenge.... Well, I'm happy with the result. I have had some mistakes at the time to mount the engine, it was a lot of try and failure. The upper cowling cover also is a little bit bent from the correct line. Also there is some silvering in the decals. But it is not bad at all, for my short expertise. I have in my stash 4 more models in this scale, but I think I'm not gonna buy any other more at 1/72 because of mi sight! 38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holzhamer Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Getting a full engine of a Fw190 in 1/72 is a daunting task no matter how slim or fat your fingers are 😉 i like it a lot, the small mishaps are not relevant giving the 9verall quality of your build. I have some decals in the stash to build that same plane in 1/48, love the gull. Thumbs up, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Superb modelling in every way. I wish you wouldn't though, its spoiling my excuse that doing 1/72 I don't need to super detail. Looking at your wonderful work I don't have size for an excuse anymore, I will just have to admit to being too lazy. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazey Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 That's a fantastic build – nice finish and weathering. Is the Eduard Fw-190 now considered the best one in 1/72, especially with engine details etc.? Regards, David 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very detailed and good coat of dirty Thanks Andros. I think the difference in a good build are oils, they are really easy to control and you can erase it if you have a mistake or you don't like the result.

Well, the Eduard Fw in 1/72 comes without the engine, you have to buy it apart. But, still and for what I know to this day, in this scale is the best. No doubt.

Kitchen Modeller Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 If this is what you can do with 1/72, I can't wait to see your work on a bigger scale. This is a great model - love the colour scheme, the weathering, the engine detail, the rigging. Great work... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
