Hi,

here it is, my first finished model on this forum. It's Hasegawa FW 190A-3 in scale 1/48. I used Eduard's PE set and masks. For painting I used Gunze and Vallejo acrylic. Model is weathered with wash and filters. Figure is from Eduard's Luftwaffe fighter crew set and it's painted with Vallejo colors. Here is some photos, please excuse me because they aren't good

Hi Anze

Nice job! That's a beautiful '190!

And you've nothing to be ashamed of with your photos, but if you're using a tripod, you could try longer exposures at a higher f-stop (i.e. a smaller aperture) - this will result in a greater depth of field and more of the model will be in focus.

All the best - and keep 'em coming!

Rowan

lovely build and impressive finish !

(personally I'd have have attempted a more pristine appearance for the 190 flown by the Kommandeur III./JG 2..)

A beautiful build there. I built one in 1/72 scale, a Tamiya 190 A-3. The only problem was I am not sure if the side markings are correct. The balkenkreuz are white and open not filled in and I haven't been able to find any examples of that in photos. May be a mistake on the manufactures part and I didn't catch it till the aircraft was decaled already.

Again, a great job. Russell
