Hasegawa Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-3 1/48

May 30, 2014 · in Aviation · · 19 · 3.4K

Hi to all, here is another one from me. Before this build, I had fear that I will ruin all of the work if I try to add some weathering effect to the model, so I have decided to push my limits regarding this important process in this hobby. At the end I was pleased with the result. Nothing too much, but I think that I have managed to achieve worn effect of used aircraft.

Painted with Vallejo Acrylics, weathered with oil colors. Used Eduard's PE for cockpit, some scratch build (pitot tube, weapons, break lines...)

Hope you like it!

  1. Hey, Milan, fine job on the kit. It looks awesome, and the weathering is spot-on. I think you've got the weathering thing nailed down. My view is less is generally far superior to more when it comes to weathering.

  2. That's a fine FW Milan, weathering and all!

    Best regards

  9. Very nice finish on this one, Milan, just the right amount of weathering, less is definitely more!

  10. You pushed yourself right into a beautiful model. Weathering is just about right, for a well-used warplane.

  11. Very nicely done, Milan. Excellent and naturalistic weathering. I wonder if I could ask about your weathering technique?
