JohnB Posted September 28, 2024 Posted September 28, 2024 Calling this one done. The only after market items are the FineMolds belts. Painted with Mr. Color, Testor's, and White Ensign. Decals are from my decal stash. I hope you like it. 5 1
CANicoll Posted September 28, 2024 Posted September 28, 2024 Nicely done John. What did you use for the chipping? A sliver pencil? Looks good. 2

Peterpools Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 John WOW, I'm off the forum for a few days and your 190 crossed the finish line. She looks absolutely awesome - paint and finish is amazing as always. Yes, I did see the chipping and it does look good - light and reserved - so well done. 🏆 1
PanzerWomble Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 Nice job John, I like the subtle mottling , also curious how you got the engine to fit😳 my one build of that Revell was very tricksy getting the cowl to play nicely. FYI Lothar Fodisch didn't finish the war. Link to pilot info 1

I just bought a FW-190F-8 on ebay and plan for that to be my next build. I hope it delivers by the end of this week but we will see. This is my intended subject.
JohnB Posted September 30, 2024 Author Posted September 30, 2024 Thanks! I'm pleased that you like it. YES, that engine/cowling fit was a bear! High cuss-factor all around. I had put this one on the SOD due to that but finally decided to resume the build. After much trimming of parts and test fitting I finally was able to get everything together. It's apparent to me Revell intended this one to be built with the cowling open. 🙃
