Rowdy Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Dear all, Did some ‘in between’ work on a Focke Wulf D9 which I replaced a few times from the shelf and the box, because I really didn’t know what to do with it... After today! This will be Focke Wulf D9 WrNr 600150 flown at the Jg4 which was found intact by the allies in the forest around Frankfurt a Main. In the picture the allies removed the engine and cowling which can be seen behind the aircraft. The rest of the A/C frame is unknown by me... I choose to make the aircraft with a complete fuselage and nosesection, because these D9’s of this stab were very nice colored on the nose with RLM 83 (MRP 70) with a RLM 75 spotting on the cowling. What do you think so far? 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your choice of subject matter is VERY interesting and unique, and your skill set to produce a spectacular representation is incredibly impressive............... that's pretty much what I think...................... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusMac Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Stunning work again Rowdy. I love the crumpled metal effect on the wing roots. Do you use lead foil for that? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I like the look a lot, a bit on the dark side, but will look fantastic under some dense trees, with toned done grounds and plane, to enhance the realistic lighting. Cheers Rob 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusMac Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Looks great. As Rockie says, the splintered prop looks brilliant. Did you use real wood or carve the plastic? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowdy Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Thanx Gusmac! I carved the prop blade which came in the box, a hell of a job I can tell :) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
