+LloydNB Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I've got some nice plates of Atlantic Fw-200s so I thought I'd try my hand at one. I'm still trying to get the ripples in the wing skin right. Lloyd Quote
+SUICIDAL Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I see you changed the tones. Very good effect of roughness. the ribs are excellent. Quote
+Wrench Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Be using decals for some of the other items (radio call letters, KG40 insigina)???? As the right side tail swas is backwards.... I'd also add some engine faces to those disc-thingy's in front of the nacceles' on the "B" skin map. did you get a copy of the "Warpaint" book I linked to in the other thread? If not, here it is again: http://wrench1smog.com/books/warpaint_fw200.zip give all the squadron codes, and has some really nice profiles. wrench kevin stein Quote
+LloydNB Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 Thanks Kevin I haven't been able to find the Warpaint book in New Zealand. Its a bit disappointing though that it doesn't contain a good panel line diagram like the rest of the series. Colour is the the big hassle. Most books show standard Luftwaffe colours but some show a maritime scheme. I've decided to paint it for the North Atlantic. As for decals, I've been working on a range of these - Lloyd Quote
+allenjb42 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 http://military-machine.blogspot.com/search?q=focke+wulf+condor This might help. Quote
+LloydNB Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 Currently painted RLM 72/73/65, the concensus seems to be 70/71/65. I've found reference to these colour being taken off a model made by a Condor pilot during WWII using stock squadron paints. May be I'll provide both options - not too hard with "colour replace".

+Wrench Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 looking good! did you d/l that Warpaint book? Did it help any (other than adding to your collection! <evil grin>?? wrench kevin stein Quote
+LloydNB Posted September 28, 2009 Author Posted September 28, 2009 Latest progress shot. I'll start on the underside tomorrowish. Lloyd Quote
