1/72 MPM Fw 189A-1

A really nice job on the whole project, Steve. The camo mottling looks perfect, an interesting subject as well. Thanks for posting.

Really nice job on this . As I mentioned in another post the Harbor Freight  airbrush offers a lot bang for the buck. Your great  camo. paint job is a testament to that.

I think it is real nice, and a good presentation with the base.

Beautiful job on the model and the base really sets it off nice.

I started airbrushing usuing  the same harbor freight one, until I found a 40% off coupon for Michael's craft store.  i rushed out and bought the Badger 105.  It was the last one they had.  i hope you like yours as much as I like mine, it does a great job and it's soooo easy to clean being a gravity model.

Awesome build Steve!   I also have a Badger 105 that my fiance got me for my birthday with a 50% coupon from Michaels.  It's an awesome airbrush.     How did you achieve the mottling paint job?

Thanks a bunch guys.
Mike,
I painted the mottling using around 5 psi and about 50/50 paint thinner mix. I also had to hand paint some areas to remove any overspray. It took a couple of hours with the optivisor, but it was fun. I really want to get good enough to paint this como scheme in 1/72 I've seen on several Luftwaffe aircraft, I'll keep trying.
