Rodney Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) I needed a motivation build and pulled the Eduard 1/72 Fw190A-8 off the shelf. I've primarily switched to building 1/48 but Sprue Brothers had an Eduard sale and I picked this 1/72 Weekend Edition kit up for something like $8. Added Eduard seat belts. I used the kit decals but could not get the nose spiral decal to work. My wife bought me a Silhouette Cameo for Christmas! So, my first project was to scan the remaining spiral decal and cut it out on Tamiya Tape and use it as a mask. Worked out great. The wing cannons and pitot were all replaced with Albion tubing. For the first time, I used EZ Line for the antenna wire. It was easy to glue in place but looks large and out of scale for 1/72. All painting is done with Mr. Color lacquers. Weathering was done with oils. Overall, it's a nice kit. Thanks, Rodney Edited January 26, 2019 by Rodney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
