Eduard Fw 190 A-7 & Eduard Fw 190 D-9 Diorama

[406 Silverado]

Looks like you're making your way through these builds in good fashion with the seam filling and beginnings of painting Keith. That fuel barrel cart is going to put a nice touch on this whole diorama idea you've got going. Splendid work.

[Green KreationZ]

Thank you all! 

Paintwork underway. The A-7 main paint is done. D-9 is quite a bit more elaborate, so will take a few days to get it all down.

Excellent painting work! Hard to believe those are really 1/48? I always think they were 1/32.

[Green KreationZ]

Thank you my friend! 

[TJ]

Great start on the paint. Definitely gonna look impressive when finished

[kyledehart5]

Looks like a really outstanding start on the paint work for sure!

[Green KreationZ]

@teejaythanks fellas kyledehart5  


Made more progress on my Fw 190D-9. Definitely the most elaborate paint scheme I’ve done so far. Still need to do a bit of NMF on the bottom:

Looks really cool with the different variations of RLM 76

Thank you! It’s pretty unusual to see RLM-76 on the upper wings. I love unique schemes like this 

[Green KreationZ]

Another update. NMF work on the bottom done. First time I’ve ever done anything with a NMF. I used Alclad White Aluminum over Alclad Gloss Black. I’ll be interested in applying weathering techniques to enhance the details a bit.

Love your paint work on the D-9!

[TJ]

So cool.....

[kyledehart5]

Your paint work across the board is top notch and I also love the liveries. Beautiful work.

[thug626]

Those are some great looking paint schemes. Well done.

Cheers

kyledehart5 handiabled TJ thug626 - Thank you all! 

Down to the nitty gritty tonight. Gonna get gloss varnish on the A-7 and paint the stripes on the D-9. I’ll also get a few more parts glued up like the D-9 engine and cowl, A-7 fuel tank, and landing gear for both. 

[406 Silverado]

Man you straight up KILLED it with that paint on the D-9 and then again with the aluminum application. Some really sharp camo work Keith.

[Green KreationZ]

Thank you my friend 406 Silverado

Onto decals for the A-7 tonight.

D-9 gonna get gloss clear and hopefully begin decals on it tomorrow.

Should be completed with both Fw by early next week. Prob be another week or two to complete the diorama

[Green KreationZ]

decals are all done on the A-7 minus the remaining bit on the swastikas. These Eduard decals have a removable film. The caveat is, you gotta let the decals cure for at least 24 hours before attempting to remove the film. 

Once the film is gone, I’ll do another layer of gloss varnish followed by oil washes. 



The D-7 got its first coat of gloss varnish last night so should be good for decals tonight/tomorrow. 

[deafpanzer]

Sweet!!! I really liked the Eduard's new decals and they came out really good on my previous build. I was surprised how easy it was too.

If you’ve not seen before. This is how you are able to remove the carrier film from Eduard decals. 

[cbaltrin]

Wow, those are looking great. Can't wait to see these done. Nice job!

[kyledehart5]

Very nice. I appreciate the video showing the decals too. Haven’t seen those in action yet but they sure seem to look nice after they’re laid down.

   Are you using those tweezers with the plastic guard on the end Keith?

No plastic on these ones. This particular A-7 will be pretty weathered, so scratches are welcomed. I actually went back and added more on the back end haha. 

If you want a more clean look, you can also use tape or chemicals to remove the carrier film. I’ll use tape on the D-9 and show that way as well.

You’re welcome! This too is my first time and love it! Only it all decals were like this 

[Green KreationZ]

Masking tape was starting fall off the A-7. Decided to snap a pic before putting new tape on

[project510]

Oh my, that looks fantastic man! Well done!

[TJ]

Man....that engine looks fantastic

[handiabled]

All of the great detail work you did is really paying off. That engine looks wonderful
