Just a few ongoing builds ...

Airfix FW-190 one that I found to be a PITA, but I've stuck with it & now it just needs a wash & weathering

They look like they are coming along nicely Patrick.

 

[Guest]

Looks like you have been busy Patrick, nice subjects ,especially the E-50

Looking good Patrick , I do this sometimes which is is why it seems I knock out builds very quickly lol

I can do builds complete in a day though it depends on how good and simple a kit is

At the moment I have four active ones on the go

The E-50 looks very well! You are not posting any under construction thread...??

Thanks Al, although I could never build as quickly as you!

Thanks Polux! The E-50 was a very simple kit to build. I'll probably do a painting & weathering type thread for that one. I'm just rubbish at remembering to stop & take pictures!

Are they finished yet?

 

[Guest]

Thanks Patrick!

Is a very interesting thread, we can participate??

Anyway I'm afraid to collapse the forum, I have many, many builds unfinished

Thanks Si, although that's more luck than judgement in my case!

Ooh that FW has sat on the shelf of shame for a while Moni!

The E-50 is going to be a nightfighter, with an ambush-style camo job using greys & blues

 

[monica]

oh wow that sounds great cannot wait to see that one,

will look forward to it

What was the PITA with regards to the FW190? It looks great.

Thank you Joe! Cast your mind back when I posted some pics of the fit problems I had - then I made it worse by mucking about with the wing roots (which actually fitted very well until I got going at them!)

It's not too bad, but there won't be any close-up shots!

I sem to recall the issue, thought it was to do with the cowl though.
