fam43 282 Posted November 28, 2011 Now it was time for the Frankenwulfer to visit a beautyfarm to get some makeup in form of a thick coat of primer. All in all it dosen't look to bad. Hours of filling and sanding have paid off. During drying times I did the engine cowl minus the flaps. The underside looks ready too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fam43 282 Posted March 22, 2012 Back on the road. Three months ago my V32 had an accident. I tumbled over a carelessly layed about cable and smashed the bird on the edge of my desk. 80% write off! The cowl and parts from the tail were the only things I could save. I was really pissed off and wanted to give up the V32. At least after much grumble I started from zero once more and the bird is back on my desk augmented with a four blade prop, exhausts and cowlflaps. Have to watch the floor carefully in future.

Learstang 154 Posted March 22, 2012 Looking good, Michael! I had that happen to me and a nearly-finished Manchester conversion I was doing (in 1/72nd scale). The Manchester still hasn't completely recovered. It's nice to see that your FW-190 has. Regards, Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
