   | ADVICE hi guys and girls Thinking of doing the tamiya 1/48 fw190 a-3 now  but the only paints i have are the revell enamels. i was thinking of using the colours i used for the stuka which the pics are on here, would they be ok  .Also i have a revell grey for the cockpit. As it is just for my niece i think it should be okay. What do you guys think, your advice appreciated. thanks Keith

| It depends on the particular Wurger painting you want to make.So you need to find a colour profile or B&W pic of the Fw190 firstly.Fortunately Fw190 were painted with many camo schemes though there was the major RLM74/75/76 one for all of them and it is possible to fine the camo pattern which can fit to your Revell colours..

| Maybe some Fw 190 used on the Eastern front? JG 54 is known for painting their aircraft with bomber camouflage patterns. Edit: Here is one example... Not a Fw 190A-3 but still...

For bombers and fighters there were used different patterns rather. But if you meant colours for this you are right Igor.The JG54 had their FWs painted with RLM71/72/76 but most of them were later than A-3 version, Wurgers. But there are known A-3s of the JG51with the same camo scheme.

| I see...the camo scheme was called the desert one.. Here an example of the RLM76/79 camo mottled with RLM80 very often.

| There are some excellent profiles of Dora - 9's in the "Modelmania Focke-Wulf Fw 190D" book by AJ Press which Wurger kindly sent me. Unfortunately I do not have a scanner so perhaps someone else could oblige who has both the book and scanner?

| Hi Maximowitz I am sorting out the colour sceme for my Fw190 A-3 and i found these details of these A-3 and A-4. How easy or hard is it to turn an A-3 into an A-4 fw190_variants_03.jpg
