Noobs first attempt FW 190D-9

[Guest]

Hey everyone here are pics of the 1/32 scale fw190d-9 by hasegawa, I will preface this by saying I didnt really follow the color chart(used the colors I had) I built this for my foster son, so with that in mind that's why the swastikas are absent(my wife said so...lol) I used this as a learning experience, to better my skills, so I'll tell you things I learned

1) keep the cockpit glass masked until the end.

2) probably should have wet sanded the paint.

3) Decals kicked my ass..lol

looking for some pointers and constructive criticism

First Attempt?

Taking account for the things you have said yourself I will say that it looks very well built and the paintwork looks good as well. A nice finish.

I will look forwards to seeing a serious attempt !!

I agree with Ian. that's well tidy for a first model.

Great work on a first attempt Looking forward to your next build

I think that looks really good in its "interesting" markings

You've obviously got the knack for this sort of thing.

Sorry, can't offer any constructive critisism or pointers....You have a natural talent!

Just one thing, we are a real friendly crew on here, so how about disclosing your real name? It might not take as long to type as Uncl.........lol

I look forward to your next model on here.
