It went the way of the dodo with all of the other good smilies when the site got redesigned. *Sniff*.

raptordriver Has the deadline been extended?
Has the deadline been extended?
It sure has, now go get that kit man!
Frank
If so then I might be able to fit Oskar Boecsh's Fw-190A8/R2 in this build.
Don't do it though, I don't even have the kit lol.
Geez Mo, you're really moving on this one! Great work so far. Wing root looks especially good- well done!
Smoothed the wingroot MG door's. That's some tough sanding with sandpaper.
Drilled the MG's and that little scoop forward of the supercharger intake. Shot a coat of primer on it.
Hope to have paint on this one by the weekend if all goes well.
Mo.
Rob, thanks for the comments mate I'll get some undersurface pics up but it will have to wait until friday or thursday your time...I can't seem to upload pics into photobucket from my laptop but i can from my daughters, i have the kids on weekends so i'll have to wait until then...
Mo- No problem buddy, I don't worry too much about those technicalities! By all means, I would love to see Barkhorn's JG 6 ride. Funny... I just received a autographed photo of Barkhorn in the mail I bought online for my collection. That, and the book I am reading right now by Helmut Lipfert of JG.52 mentions Barkhorn's name quite a bit. I suddenly feel an urge to build one of his mounts as well...
Hey Frank, I was hoping to build Barkhorn's JG/6 ride. Don't know if JG6 would technically qualify as "Home Defense" unit, as they fought mainly on the Eastern front. I do have options of an aircraft from JG301 with HD bands.
Hey Julez! Excellent build, as always!! Please get some pics of the lower surface- I'd like to see that NMF again!

Randy -- great choice! That's the same kit I built and I really want to do the famous Black 10 one of these days too, as soon as I can find another example of this kit on eBay. She builds very cleanly, you'll fairly rip through it compared to the ICM MiG. Yep, RLM-79 is the base colour. Can't wait to see her go together!
Cheers, Mike/TB379

Randy, awesome scheme on that one love it....I used MM RLM 79 on my 109G recently and had to lighten it with some white to get the right shade...MM have the right colour but under that sun it faded quickly....
Looking forward to seeing some WIP pics buddy
Frank thank you sir that's a huge help to me, I couldnt find anything on this color scheme using google. I will have some progress pictures up in a few days.
Randy So many to build.......So little time
Randy- You got it, RLM 79 would be the right color. The bottoms of those Tropical planes were RLM 78, and the green splotches are RLM 80. Hope that helps!
Daywalker my 190 is on the bench and the airbrush is ready to paint the pit and gear bay in the morning, bout time huh. Got finished pics of my MiG build up so now its full speed ahead on this one.
I want to do something a bit different so I think I will build this one a 2./SG4, in Northern Italy 1944 in tropical camo. I havent been able to find the correct color but made a guess, I don't really want to be mixing my own colors, and am trying to get away from Tamiya paints as base colors. Anyway I figured I would ask the experts here if Model Master SANDGELB RLM 79 would be the correct color to use as the base. Here's a picture from the box of what it looks like.
I think is a cool looking paint scheme
Julez72 Frank, so mine is the 22nd finished for this group and i find myself wondering what the record is for completed builds in a GB...Any thoughts???
Frank, so mine is the 22nd finished for this group and i find myself wondering what the record is for completed builds in a GB...Any thoughts???
You know, I have wondering the very same thing! The most I have had in any of the group builds was 35. Those were from the Knights of the Sky II GB.
Mo- Great news! Glad that your stickers are on their way. Which bird are you doing?
dupes- PICS! WE NEED PICS!!!
Randy- No worries my friend! I haven't made any progress lately on my F-86 for the NMF II GB either!
Very very nice work Julez72 hope mine comes out half as well as yours did.
Daywalker thanks for extending the build group I was worried I would blow my second commitment of the year. I havent even started my F-8 yet. Well it is sitting on the bench with the parts all cleaned up and ready for a bit of paint.
Mike, Hugh.. Thanks gents i'm glad you like her....
Mike, For panel lines i use water colour pencils, you know the ones the kids use to colour in a pic and then go over with a wet paintbrush, i break open the pencil and crush the pigment into powder before mixing with water...
Julez--Well done!
Hugh
Julez well done on a very fine job . the paintwork and especially the mottle look spot on, the panel lines look great too, what did you use for them?
Cheers...
Mike
Thanks fellas for the positive comments It's not my best work but it's been a long while between drinks regarding mottle camo.....Now in a couple of weeks i'll make a start on the Eduard A-5....
Julez, great looking 190, really nice job you done on that.
Dupes, where you been hideing, haven't seen you around in ages.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Julez, Awesome photo's. Fantastic paint/decal work!
Frank, Got an email notification that decals were on the way yesterday. Hope to get the D-9 project restarted this weekend.
Egads you fellas are ripping out some great builds!
Finished up my 1/72 D9 juuuuust before Granitecon last weekend...and the previous end of the GB (heheheh). Need to snap some pics to toss up for you.
Beautiful work Jules! I really like the paint job on this one!
There has been a lot of great work here over the past month. Keep up the good work everyone and keep the pics coming.
Dave
Ah yes Julez, much better! I updated the photo on page one. I really like this one!
Hey i finally managed to get some pics up....
Frank, I was looking for a set from Eagle Editions. I've put in a commit @ Sprue Brothers for the set I'm looking for and will get an email when they are available.
More great looking 190's everyone!
