Looks stunning, really do like the open gun bays your attention to detail is first class

A very nice result John, your painting skills & attention to detail really make this an excellent Dora

Very nice, well done.

Thanks-very happy it did not go to the way of my Ta 152! Anyway, the Ta 152 taught me to not apply pin washes like ceramic washes  :$

A quick question John - what is a 'ceramic wash'?

Wonderful modelling.


I love everything about this.

That's the wash where you spread it all over and wipe it off after a few hours. I am pretty sure Flory does a whole range of it, HGW does some and UMP do it as well. They are usually clay based. However, I have found that the MIG washes are a lot better if going for the weathered look as they allow great precision and control for streaking, highlighting etc

Wonderful modelling.


I love everything about this.

Thanks mate


Cheers, John

I get you!  I thought it was probably that, but I've never heard it described as such - thanks

Hi mate, so this must have been done just after I went AWOL. So you did a eduard D9 in 1/48 is this your first? I can't remember.
It's nice mate very nicely finished indeed brings frustrating memories of my Red 1 back but I loved the challenging build and the results are great if you persevere like you have here aren't they?
I still have the one I purchased from your good self mate remember? The profipak.
Maybe we'll do a friendly build off, fancy it?

Boom! Good effort mate, I scratched the fuel access panel on mine to throw in some extra ball ache! Give it a go next time you'll find its worth it

I am certainly considering opening lots of panels and doing a super detailed Dora next....

Superb work John mate. Very nice work on the guns, cockpit and landing gear, always finicky but youve done really well with them
