[Prekin]

Thank you very much LB, I am happy you like my work! Now I can finish pilot

[Elbee]

Prekin Congrats, she is a thing of beauty. Best, LB

[Prekin]

She is back in service! Nice to see her in the sky!

[Prekin]

all wheels weathered. Just only quick job with wash. Gunsight is finished, mounting is hidden in the fuselage.

[Prekin]

Back in workshop! Instrument panel is done. I will do not add missing switches and one warning light.

[Prekin]

Thank you Rex! From my experience I decided to do all remakes and repaints after several flights FW-190 will be probably project for next winter.
I did not see the "White 14" in real, but in my opininon it looks much better, that the Eflite P51 "Lou IV" with blue wings and fuselage.


However what we would do if the paint scheme would be perfect

[jetfool]

Beautiful models, Prekin. I repainted my E-Flite FW-190 a day after I received it. The stock paint scheme was totaly wrong in my opinion. Spent about 3 mo. repainting/detailing but sure looks a lot better now. Hope to get it and my Corsair maidens in this next month. Been a rainy and windy spring this May.
Best Regards, Rex

Prekin Outstanding is all I can say. Best, LB

Thank you very much LB!!!
Now I am finishing the instrument panel.

[Elbee]

Prekin Outstanding is all I can say. Best, LB

[Prekin]

Thank you very much Rex! I am happy you like my work!
She is not complete done, but good enough for static display. I must finish cockpit, nomenclature painting and add the rearview mirror. Tomorrow she will be only with pilot and gunsight in cockpit.
Some day ago arrived another project. Eflite FW-190 is also close to 1/7 scale, as the Spitfire. Can wait to fly them together with my son. FW-190 will also get paint shceme from summer 1944

Looking really nice Prekin. Rex

[Prekin]

Main parts of exterior are done. Now I have one or two days to add some neccessary parts of cockpit. The rest of cockpit I will finish in 2 or 3 weeks.
As I mentioned before, there will not be a lot of details in cockpit. Only air tanks, pilot, instrument panel, gunsight and former behind the pilot.

[Prekin]

I put exhaust stacks back on nose and did some weathering.

[Elbee]

Not bloody likely.

[Prekin]

Prekin, of course you did.... She's getting close to finish, yeah? Great Work, Sir, Best, LB

Correct LB. Close to finish. But only exterior. The cockpit is empty now, that will be next stage. A friend asked me to repaint his FL Corsair. What do you think. Did I agree?

[Elbee]

Prekin, of course you did.... She's getting close to finish, yeah? Great Work, Sir, Best, LB

[Prekin]

Nearly done whole painting job. Invasion stripes I done minutes ago. Now I can add exhaust stacks and do some light weathering.
I had to put fuselage back on wings and add elevator to see her in one piece!

[Elbee]

Prekin. again, nicely done, Sir. Best, LB

[Prekin]

Nomenclature is nearly done.
Cannon muzzles added. Now I will make some weathering on them. I see I have to do some cartridge holes in wings.

[Prekin]

Thank you LB. I did some weathering on MG ports and added patches.
