Hello
ARC! This is my ProModeler FW-190G3. I started this kit in 1999 and
finished in in 2012. I built it OOB except for the decals, which came from
Aeromaster.

I used
Model Master Acryl paints and shot the camouflage through my Badger 150
airbrush. The base is some unknown wooden board/plaque thing that my wife found
in a thrift store. I applied a rough layer of spackling paste to it,
painted it some earthy brown color from my son's art box, then applied Woodland
Scenics grass powders and bushes. The wooden boards are balsa wood planks
cut to shape, then brushed liberally with water colors to make then look a bit
weather-beaten.
This was a
tricky kit to fit together, with lots of little parts and details, but it
was fun and satisfying to finish. It's a shame it is out of
production, because it looks like someone that is FW-190 savvy can make
several versions of this warbird, based on the extra parts included in the
kit but omitted in the instructions. Anyways, I enjoyed it and would
gladly recommend this kit to others!
CHEERS!
