This is my Fw 190 F-8 made stright from box, it's revel 1:72 with decals from italeri (italeri's kit is not good )For painting i used Revel's cheapest airbrush (for begginers) with some changes, thats why I could make those little brushes.

Hey there, pretty slick. I really like the paint job-looks dirty.

Looking good. I'm wondering how many hours it took to get the radio antenna wires in place?

It's not a problem. Just few minutes I used plastic wires which can do any one. You need a pice of plastic and a ligchter ( maches or something else with fire), then you warm the plastick stick and stretch it and you hava a nice thin antena wire :-)
Two points of glue and antena is on its place

welcome to Armorama
For first two models I used Revels power packs, but I think that is not a good idea for airbrushes. I had made a compressor from a frige ( it's common in Poland), it's very cheap and has a constant presure. So I could work for long hour just airbrushing the model. Now I', looking for some good airbrush for good work :-)

The nose thing is a decal.
Stene said
Yes these are decals from Italeri's kit. Decals from this kit are fine but model (frames) is tragic in some way it is Fw 190 but Revell kit is the best I have ever seen in 1:72 scale , tahats why i used decals from that kit.

Very nice work !
At an angle, the decals on the wings might show a bit of silvering.
But anyway I'm realy impressed by by your model !
