Jamie_Graham Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Here I present my last work finished, this FW-190 F8 that fought on the Hungarian scene, at the end of 1944 or early 1945. I work especially aimed at finding a good environment, with effects of weathering according to the operating status of these aircraft . I hope you like it! As usual, more pics and info in my blog: jamiegrahamworks.com_fw-190-f8 24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatFlyHalf Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Hmm. Maybe it's just the angles of the pictures but is the forward rake of the main undercarriage a bit steep or missing? Otherwise it looks super. I love the depiction of the snow too. How did you achieve that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RE:undercarriage ... it seems that these 190 destined in the Hungarian front eliminated that part of the landing gear so that the snow / ice does not block the wheels. 😁👍👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not referring to the 'spats' that covered the wheels. It was the angle of the undercarriage legs in relation to the wing. From your pictures it looks as if the legs are perpendicular to the wing, when in fact they were angled both inward and forward by a few degrees.

Ah .. ok ok .. now i understand what you meant. it may be that the images do not correctly show that angle of the landing gear ... yes yes, it's not perpendicular ... there is an inclination degree. You can see that better in the first photo. Thanks for your comment!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
