Nice work, Chris.

Thanks, Pete. That's the plan - they take on the P-47s of the Hell Hawks and defend a train.

[CrashCraig]

Fearsome looking fighters Chris. Must be the wash "dark dirt" ! Love that name.

[Flying Officer Kyte]

Another paint job to be proud of Chris. I don't know about the dark dirt, it would put the wind up me in any colour. Then I am flying Swordfish at the moment!
Rob.

[malachi]

Thanks, guys

[hokusai]

Excellent looking model. Would not believe it's 1/200

AIM model
miscmini decals







Paints:
RLM 76 late war ver (yellowish) underbelly = AK Interactive 3rd Gen
RLM 76 ver 2 rudder and lower cowling = AK Interactive 3rd Gen
RLM 83 = a blend of two versions: AK Interactive blue-gray and Vallejo model air brown-green.
RLM 82 = AK Interactive 3rd Gen
RLM 81 ver 1 (brownish) = AK Interactive 3rd Gen
nose = Vallejo mc Black, AK Interactive 3rd Gen Insignia White
exhaust = Vallejo Xpress Copper Brown
fuselage extension base = Vallejo mc white grey
tires = Mission Models worn black grey tires
Flory Models wash = dark dirt
panel lines = Winsor & Newton Fineliner .05mm pen
At such small scale it’s tough to get the Flory Models wash to stay in the panel lines. Thanks to teaticket mentioning that in our Thursday game I was motivated to augment the 190s I’ve done so far with a felt pen, which sometimes looks too heavy but turned out pretty well and especially improved the underbellies. I still like the Flory wash for the added grunge and filter effect. Pics above have been updated.

A murder of butcher birds.

[Teaticket]

That looks like a whole lot of trouble. Beautiful flight Chris!

[Hu Rhu]

That's is a lot of Focke(s). Great picture and super painting.

Impressive squadron Chris.

Thanks, Craig, they are ready for their baptism by fire

[Flying Helmut]

Fantastic staffel!

Hope they're as deadly as they are beautiful!

[malachi]

Thank you, Tim. Very happy with 'em. We shall see if 'bolts or birds prevail
