delta7 Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 here is the start of the FW190A6 1?48th Im working on. The Eduard model is superb and its the first time Iv used photo etched parts - Its very very tiny -the instrument panel is 6 parts, the seat belts are 2 parts each but its worth it I think you can see a small map box and the rudder pedels are very detailed- pity they are going to be painted over in dull grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted September 19, 2007 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 ~S~ Dave, thats the nicest 1/48th I've ever seen M8. You are going to have to do one hell of a job with the paint to make the exterior look as good as the interior !! LOL More pics please. ~S~ Painless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are going to have to do one hell of a job with the paint to make the exterior look as good as the interior !! LOL More pics please. ~S~ Painless Im still undecided wether to open the cowls and show the guns and engine. I like the clean lines of the Fw but if I cover it up then thats a lot of work for no gain. I am going to be very careful with the painting- learnt a few lesons with the last one so will take my time. this will be my last with a brush as well, seen too many good results with spray gun not to get one, but I like the feel of brush, if I could only get that smooooth finish Id stick with it.

delta7 Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 next is a tiny amount of filling at wing roots and then sanding then painting wheels are done but will be last thing to put on along with other external small parts the gun hatches will stay open- in fact it would be very difficult to build it with mg151 hatch closed- here is what it should look like finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
