Samuraiwarrior Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Hi All, This is my build of the Focke-Wulf Fw-190 F-8 by Airfix to 1/72 scale. Kit has been built mainly OOB, with exceptions of removal of lower gear doors (carried out in the field of operations) shortened oleo compression struts to lower stance of loaded aircraft. Seat belts from painted paper, aerial wire from stretched sprue, step from wire. Painted mainly in Aeromaster Acrylics RLM 74,75,76. White distemper from Tamiya White, Vallejo Acrylics for detail painting, Vallejo Matt/Satin Varnish. Flory Dark Earth Wash, Oil dot paint filters. Model has kit decals of 1./SG 2 based in Hungary during 1945. An enjoyable build. Welcome any comments, questions and suggestions. Thanks for looking, Kevin 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 A little jewel of a model on a 'simple' but excellent base, telling a background story of cold weather field conditions. Beautiful and careful modelling. Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
