Rod Bettencourt Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Hello all, This my attempt at the Hasegawa 1/32 FW 190 A5 kit. I found this to be an easy and fun build. I was motivated by some great builds at the Vegas Nats. I was able to pick the kit and decals while I was there. I have always had a fondness for the Yellow and Black checker nose. Reminds me of the Ernst Kessler Bird from the Movie The Great Waldo Pepper. I riveted the skin and used G factor landing gear, Barracuda wheels, Quinta cockpit and a mix of Model Master and AK Paints. The pics were taken with my I phone. I find it easier to take these outdoor pics then trying to make a indoor studio picture. I am a terrible photographer! Thanks for looking.

Kenneth Joy Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Wow! Any movie studio looking to make a WWII involving Luftwaffe aircraft needs to contact you. Many of those pictures look like color photos of that era. Simply mind blowing 109 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
