1:32 Hasegawa Fw 190d-9

[PeterOlsen]

Hi Folks, Here is my 1:32 Hasegawa Fw 190d-9 finished as "White 7" from JG 51. My main inspiration was from the artwork and black and white photos from the JaPo book  "focke-wulf Fw 190D camouflage and markings" starting on page 360. I was really taken by the supposed 76/83 wing colours, the dense and intricate fuselage mottles,( those which you can see in the photo at least) and what looks to be a patched up or replacement cowl. I really thought this would make a cracking scheme. 

 

Well, here it is finally finished ...... some of you may have seen it at the Monson show in Hungry this year. I'm sorry to be sparing with the photos but I'm saving it for publication as I'm working on a book in wich this model and other works of mine will be published. I hope to share my tips, techniques and insights whilst imparting my enthusiasm to the model community around the world. Hopefully your responses will urge me to keep going with this as its proving to be quite involving.

Hello Peter, Beautiful build and finish, however, "White 7" had a yellow under cowling as did most Fieseler built Dora9s. It can be seen in a couple of photos.

   Cheers, Jerry

Hi Jerry, thanks for your input. I did indeed paint the under cowling in yellow. It's just difficult to see from the angle of the pictures I've posted here.

 

Cheers,

Peter

 

P.S ...... actually,..... if you zoom in you can just see it
