This is a nice basic little Hasegawa kit, went together really well. A tiny issue with the nose to engine mount fitment to help it seat properly otherwise the kit is a joy. Working now on trying to up my paint game a bit regards tonal variety or post shading. It involves using the same main colours but either lightening or darkening it a small amount to get the required effect. I preshaded first with panzer grey primer, then some thin top coats of Olive drab so the preshading still just shows through and then the post shade to lighten off some panels and areas with the olive drab plus a drop of white. I'm just sort of experimenting with it whilst looking at a bunch of different pics and of course, some artistic licence. The post shade is done with a really thin mix, 6-7 drops thinners, 3 olive, 1 white at about 12-15 psi and then softly softly spray on Daniel san. I'm liking how it is coming out so far smile

Depending on how it looks after she is decalled and flatted i may look at some post shading work to pull it together and then reflat.

Work, it really cuts into hobby time! Despite pulling some big shifts and only getting Sundays off, she is nearly done. Pretty happy with how the worn olive drab has come out, not real sure about the oil colour i chose but i'll have to live with it now.

I'm still doing some mucking around with a weathering pencil, some touch ups to do to the prop and wheels and decide on canopy positioning, will update with some proper shots when she is finished smile

Can you slip a piece of paper under the drop tank?

Another superb job.


There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Yep, the card it is on is warped, but it is sitting a tad low owing to the mounting brackets. They needed about one and half mil shaved off a couple of them.

Pics done smile There is a slight gap underneath the drop tank that you can see in one pic, but it is lower than intended. She may need to be renamed to 'Ole Sparky' as she performs her takeoff run.
