Fw190 Focke Wulf 190 A8/R2 Tamiya. Painting and weathering (Part2)

In this second parte I finish 1/48 Fw190 from Tamiya. I paint luftwage standar camuflage in east front and I apply different weathering effects: Oils, pigments and enamel washes.
I hope it will be useful and funny for all of you.

Clean, subtle airbrush work

Different and very interesting way to do it. Got my sub

[@richardperry21]

Outstanding Pro job.....thanks for the video. With thousands of hours in higher-powered old taildraggers, if I may add some tec. for you all. In the real world, the elevator of a TAIL DRAGER is usually in the full down position without a pilot in the cockpit. This is due to the controls not in balance without air moving over the surfaces and it is easier to push the control stick forward in order to exit the cockpit.

[@TurbineModels]

Thanks for your so interesting comment Ricky!

[@zachnar0125]

Good point! You never really see this done.

[@richardperry21]

I do it myself when I fly dads Warbirds@@zachnar0125

[@richardperry21]

Some pilots use the seat belt to hold the control stick back fully

Interesting technique on preshading with wash

[@TurbineModels]

Thank you, its a good way to control the preshading phase :)

[@jzghostrider66]

@@TurbineModels HOW did you do that> What was your medium? Was that just ink?

[@TurbineModels]

@@jzghostrider66 I only diluted black tamiya paint (laquer one) with water and, after few minutes, I removed the excess with a cloth slightly wet in alcohol

[@nashuf1492]

Very good and not over the top with the weathering.

[@ianjackson7515]

First video of yours that I've seen.... excellent workmanship, already use many of the techniques that you employ here, however the exhaust stains with pigments is something I've not yet tried. Will definitely give that a go soon. Best from NZ.

Eastern front? No yellow underside wing tips? How long did you let the camo paint dry before applying Montex masks? Excellent paint work, the walkways - VERY NICE! Beautiful weathering techniques. Top shelf, Congrats!

[@TurbineModels]

To be honest, you are totally right, in this aircraft combated in 1944 Leutnan Klaus Bretsneider, defending the Reich of B17 USAAF attack....When I Painted the lower engine department in yellow it was a mistake :(. If I paint with Tamiya or hobby color, it's not necesarry let dry paint so much before to apply the Montex Mask (some minutes is enough). Thank you again mate!!

Hi, very great job! A question : what do you use for the preshading?

[@zachnar0125]

Wondering the same. Looked like a wash from citadel.

[@zachnar0125]

EDIT: Nevermind at the start of the video you can see he used straight Tamiya black.

[@tiezel5656]

I totaly love the work but would a war plane last for so long to be wheatherd so mutch

[@TurbineModels]

it's a very good question :)... I should say that probably the airplanes in east front didnt get the best maintenance, specially in last part of war...By the way, I always try to do my kits realistic but not only, for me it's so important that thery are attractive too

Excellent job, what is white spirits and where do I get it, thanks

[@TurbineModels]

Thank you so much!. So often, I use and "odorless thinner" (from Ammo or Ak intereactive, bot have a good quality)

[@cygnus618]

Tech question. With my airbrush, doing the spotted mottling along the sides of the fuselage, I get overspray which on a 1/72 scale model isn’t so obvious. However, am I not thinning my paint enough? Or is it a limitation of my airbrush? I use a medium pressure and am very close to the model when I spray. Will thinning the paint a bit more help with overspray?

[@TurbineModels]

It could be both things. Are you using tamiya paints?...If you are using laquer paint like tamiya or mr hobby, then, ratio should be:75% thinner + 25% paint ( a bit thinner than usual). Presssure should be also a bit lower than usual. About your airbrush, in 1/72, what kind of needle are you using?, I recommend you 0,2 mm one, otherwise final result will be too big. But what I really think it’s most important, is practice a lot on an old kit because it is a bit difficult to get the control doing the spotted mottling....cheer up!!!

[@cygnus618]

Thank you. I am using an Iwata Neo which I believe is a 0.3 needle. I am using Tamiya paints but I was not thinning out the paints enough. I would say I thinned about 50/50. I’m getting good results if I take the time to mask properly. But the small dots I need to make the mottling on the sides is where I’m losing out. So I will look at getting an airbrush with a smaller needle. I really do enjoy building the 1/72 scale planes. I didn’t think I would enjoy them so much. So far I’ve built the Fw-190, Bf-109 and the Spitfire. Lots of fun. Thank you for your reply. My next challenge is weathering like you do. Amazing work.

[@TurbineModels]

Thank you for your nice words :). I also think the only important thing in this hobby is enjoy, I was building kits for several years and I'm enjoying everyday with each new model that I do. Probably, if you are using and Iwata NEO your needle is 0,35mm, it's good to apply base coat on your models but a bit big to paint cammo details... Good luck and continue enjoying! :)

[@lestermiller2717]

The way I like doing spot patterns on my models. Is to trace onto loose leaf paper the body or wing then use all different sizes of punches to create patterns. Then use that as my template. And by just shifting the pattern around you get a unique pattern.

[@romansoucek7041]

Hi, how you made lines efect in 0:30. Its only napkins or you use any water or other? Thanks

[@TurbineModels]

Hi Roman, it depends, if the paint is too dry I use a bit of thinner for laquer paint to wet the napkins

9:50 pressure 1,5 psi ? maybe BARs ?

[@TurbineModels]

Hi!, yes, between 1,5 and 2 psi (not more than this) and paint well diluted, 70%- thinner.

[@TurbineModels]

Hi again!, I think that I didn´t understand you when I wrote my answer last time...do you want to know equivalence between PSI and BAR...1,5 PSI is close to 1 BAR

[@vonszmigiel]

Turbine Models 1bar is 14,5 psi ... So 1,5 psi is close to 0,1 bar I think that is not enough to spray paint.

[@TurbineModels]

@@vonszmigiel , it's truth I must beg you sorry, I was wrong..Normally, I use 20 psi to paint base paint and 15 (not 1,5) psi to paint mottling...
