Hi Rowan,
Excellent feature of an excellent model!
The header picture looks great as well. Maybe you could also do an article explaining how you did it.

Excellent build with a very nice camouflage scheme. The "in action" photograph looks great as well.
Thanks for sharing

Hi there
Thanks for the kind words everyone.
Peter Allen wrote a very useful article on making a digital montage with the full version of Photoshop. I've only got a cut-down version but the principles are the same, and can also be applied to other graphics software.
What's next? Well, the Fw 190D is well on the way to being finished, and I must then get back to work on the Spitfire and Seagull. New stuff? A Bf 109 V-13 and something tasty from Wingnut Wings, among other things...
All the best
Rowan

Really really lovely job Rowan.
Both the model and the digital image.
Had to love my namesake
Now you have got back in the saddle, I'm also keen to see samples of your what's on next list?

I'm very busy with a new set of German profiles. It's taking ages this time but it should be a biggie.
Best wishes
