Fw-190F-8, Eduard 1ed, 1/48


Recommended Posts

Hi comrades!

 

Here my recently finished Luftwaffe's shturmovik, built from profipack box with small additions from scratch

 

This kit is IMHO bad! I hope, the 2ed of Fw-190 by Eduard is better

 

Only light weathering is added - I believe, because of new weapons, logistics problems (mainly fuel shortage) it's makes only seldom flights

Very nice butcherbird! I’m impressed with your painting. Do you do anything special to separate the colors in the camo pattern?

Thank You!

I used blu-tack "sausages" and paper masks

Great looking Würger!

 

A note on photography: Don't trust automatic white balance! For accurate colours in artificial light, put a white A4 paper where the model is going to be placed and select the manual white balance feature. Aim the camera so that the white paper fills the frame (or the white balance window), activate the balance and hey, presto! – your photos won't suffer from that heavy orange colour cast.

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim

Thank You, Joachim!

I totally lost the battle with photography...Every time I try to improve something  - the results are disasters.😰

Nevertheless, I will never surrender and try to implement Your recommendations!

Really nice work.

 

As for the photos, I've never seen auto WB off that far, did you have it set?

 

Anyway if you camera can shoot Raw that's the way to go as you can select the WB after the photo is taken. I did a quick correction which still has a red tint to it as it's not easy to remove from a JPEG.

Great rendition of this aircraft, Eduard's first tool 190s not an easy build. Well done.

Thank You!

This build was pain...30 years old DML/Trimaster kit was better. I hope the second edition will be improved significally
