Another custom 32x Fw-190 A8

Post by hworth18 » Sun Jul 06, 2008 11:44 am

I just finished this one in the scheme of Willi Maximowitz. It was a fun scheme to do and badly needed in this scale.
:wink:

Did you use EagleCals or did you paint on the emblems?

Thanks for the comments guys, I used The Eagle Strike "Rammjager" set and have 2 more different sets on order.

This is why I need to get an airbrush. Seriously. I could be turning all of those Yellow 19s at Wal-Mart into all those crazy A-8 schemes I love... including this one... :(

Very nice work! There are so many great paint scheme possibilities for the FW-190A and its a shame that 21c has only released two (four if one counts the F-series aircraft) and given them shoddy distribution at that...

The 32x P-51B, Zero, and Bf-109 have more repaints than that!

Thanks,
I agree about the great paint schemes and I have a feeling that 21st is just getting started with their Fw-190s. I am just painting my own because I am too impatient to wait for them to trickle out. :wink:

I really hope we do some really interesting schemes. As well as catching our eyes, I think the general public would also be quite intrigued by some of the really cool 190s.

Some like these. I still couldn't find the JG with the yellow and black jagged lines, but these are still good examples of amazing schemes.

The bottom 2 on the left are the same plane, just different interpretations. I love the multicolored cowl schemes, but unfortunately, those ended with the A-7.

I plan on doing probably 3 more repaints as my area is overflowing with "Yellow 11" and "Red 19" 190s. Some of these I will probably put up for sale either here or Ebay since I am very limted on room.

Great job as always Harry. Came across your custon FOV kingtiger and stug yesterday when I unpacked my storage unit. I'm glad I didn't get rid of them because they are beautiful pieces. The only problem now is that they have a bunch of packing peanuts stuck to them, along with everything else I packed away 3 years ago! Anyone have any advice how to get the stuff off, all I can seem to do is peel it off and it still leaves alot stuck to the tracks and wheels :(

Kevin,
Glad to see your back in the forum again! I can't really suggest any way of cleaning other than water and maybe a papertowel? (And lots of care)
You might also try some rubbing alchohol on the tracks, but try not to use it on the painted surfaces.
