Erwin Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) (I deleted my earlier post ) Now with better pictures. Actually,a FW 190 W doesn't look that bad.It would have given the Germans a much better plane to attack from the Norwegian fjords. I will also add the underwing bombs from the Arado kit.Giving it an extra to attack ships.

Erwin Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) The main build is done. That didn't take very long to do.Ofcourse the old Revell kit is very basic and the Arado floats only take about an hour to build. Most time went into making the slots for the struts in the Fw underwing. I will now put a grey primer on it. And then finding a suitable camouflage...

marauderdriver Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Coming along quite NICELY and quickly too! Please not the Arado green and blue colors Love this concept jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 Coming along quite NICELY and quickly too! Please not the Arado green and blue colors Love this concept jack Thank you. I never understood why they used green/blackgreen on their sea-and floatplanes. A sea-green/grey camouflage makes more sence. But it's not that this is a WI that I will paint it purple. It still needs a German look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndersN Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) There is a splendid looking whatif single float bf109w somewhere that might be of interest reg camouflage (on mobile, I can't find it right now)Looks great Erwin, and good to see you back here. Edit Something like this perhaps http://hyperscale.com/galleries/bf109f4fzwlf_1.htm Edited April 12, 2015 by AndersN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
