Fw 190A-4, 'Weisse 4', WNr 0601 of 1./JG1
« on: July 21, 2009, 02:48:13 PM »
Haven't had a chance to scan up the photo yet...
The vast majority of the work is done. I forgot to do the control surface ribs and put on the Werk Nummer before I took these screen shots. These aren't really noticeable details, though.

This aircraft was damaged (and photographed :D ) in an accident on the 25th of June 1943, serving as a time marker for the adoption of the stripe and checkerboard patterns used on the noses of aircraft of the staffeln of I/JG1, 1./JG1 in particular using a checkerboard pattern.

Thanks, guys :aok

Here's the original. The fuselage balkenkreuz is oversprayed (with RLM 76 I guess), which I also forgot to do  :o

V0.3 (probable release :) )








Just saw the RLM 76 spot on the right wing fairing. Other than that, it's done.

Nice work there! Once upon a time I wanted to add a white checker to go with my yellow checkered skin.

I wanted to go with white 11, on a patch of over-painted green



But yours saves me the time, effort, and willpower of doing it!  :aok :rofl

I hear the checkerboard can be tough, looks like you did a great job on that one Bubi.
