Even if I had rolled over the new canopy with my chair again it would have been OK… there were 2 new vacuform canopies in the box as well as ones for about a half dozen other a/c. Well worth the $13. The Falcon canopies are real nice. 1st time I have used a vac canopies to I need a little practice getting ‘em off the sheet.

Anyway here is the completed build with all the fiddly bits attached. Tamiya 1/72 D-9 with a big tail conversion, MM enamels and Eduard PE cockpit and landing flaps. Hope you like her. As always comments/critiques/criticism welcome.

Found a piece of poster board with clouds and thought I would see how it looks. What do you think?

And lastly… with her little 144th cousin

Hey wing-nut, that is one teriffic build there. Glad you got the canopy to finish the build. Great build and like the paint job a lot. I like the cloud backgroud for the photo.

It looks great wing-nut.

You’ve got the weathering and paint just right, it looks very realistic.

Great work.

Nice one, Marc. I really like the markings and paint scheme you went with on this one. I’ve got a 1/48 ProModeler 190D in my stash and I was thinking about throwing it together while I wait for the P-39 GB to start. All these Dora’s you keep posting must be carrying subliminal messages![8)]

Great pics, too.

Thanks all. The comments are greatly appreciated

Hmmmm? I wonder what Freud would have to say… But something about a complusive behavior comes to mind[:-^]

13

I’m not buying it. You’ve only built one and the rest is Photoshop trickery…

[:D]

That looks great… awesome work. The flaps look really nice.

You must have good eyes… them micro-scale birds confound me.

14

[:D] Don’t we all ove OCD to some degree? I have five Bf109s in progress or in the pipeline, several lightnings and a few Shermans… [:-^]

15

Shhhh… don’t tell 'em about Photoshop… it’s actually cheaper than buying the kits that way[:D]

And the eyes aren’t necessarily good, just freakishly large [;)]

16

That is some fine work!

BEAUTIFUL!

"Well, I was just drivin’ down the road, and then there was this light, and then some feller with big eyes said “Take me to your Hobby Shop.” LOL

Hey Marc, your latest 190 looks superb! That is a real masterpiece. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Another great FW190 build, Marc. Great paint job on a 1/72nd, I wouldn’t be able tell the difference between the 2 kits until you put them side by side.
