I am looking for close up pictures of the landing gear, cockpit, underside topside and information on what features it has.

Does it have to be that paint scheme or are you just looking for any of them?

Give me a few minutes and I can get some up for you...

OK - here are several shots with a few comments. I will say that although it's not my favorite German plane, it's still a very clean and relatively well-detailed design by 21C in my opinion. And please forgive the dust and cobwebs in the background - now if you'll excuse me I have some spring cleaning to do!

Here's a side/top shot of Black 14 - pretty cool and pretty rare (sold only in Europe I think):

Here's the Black 12 (my favorite FW):

Here's the underbelly of the Red 3 - a bit cartoonish but definitely unique:

Here's the underneath of the Black 14 with the detachable tank:

Here's a shot of the landing gear:

A good shot of the nose and prop (love the gun bulges in the cowl):

A shot of the goofy looking pilot:

A shot of the Black 14 cockpit (not the most detailed in the world, but maybe they were really sparse to begin with?)

And a shot of the Black 12 cockpit (which looks a little better IMO):

Hope that helps!

Don't blame me if the posting of these pictures causes your wallet to suddenly feel lighter!

Those gun bulges in the cowl look like they almost could opean, however I know they probably don’t.

Looks like you may have already gotten what you needed, however, here's some pictures of the FW-190 from JG 4, as asked for in the first post. The first three are diorama photos of mine and the fourth is an edited 21c promotional picture. This particular scheme is one of my favorites for the FW-190, along with the JG-26 version. Enjoy

Thanks tmanthegreat the pics look great!!!!!!

I thought there was an antenna under the wing, just like the pic that 21st had.

btw what is the paint code for the underside of the FW-190 D9 Focke-Wulf JG4?

would it be: RLM 21 WEIß WHITE 37886

G'day VMF115

The aerial that you mentioned was not supplied on the 21stCT Fw190D's but it would be a very simple item to scratch build and would be appropriate to add.

As for the under surface on the 21st's JG 4 bird on mine it would be either RLM65 or RLM76, but as it is quite blue I'd think more the former than the later.

What would be the best way to make the antenna…. I know I could copy the design off of my AT me-262….But what could I use to make it, and where does it go?

I should be getting my Fw-190D tomorrow.
