Neil PatrickFantastic result from a mediocre kit. Decals and the fine finish fooled me at first into believing this was the Eduard kit! Wonderful!

Finished pictures of Dahl's 190A-8. I chose the "classic" look of Dahl's aircraft in Mid-1944 with the blue background emblem, RLM23 Rot fuselage band and RLM04 Gelb underside cowling.
As this was just a quick fun build I decided to weather it quite heavily to try out a few new techniques. Some worked, others not so much. I used a Prismacolour Silver pencil to do the chipping, as opposed to my usual silver paint with fine brush, and I really like the effect. I'll be keeping that one for later builds.
The exhaust staining was done with a very heavily thinned mixture of Tamiya Red Brown and NATO Black. I went a bit too heavy with it I think and need to build it up more slowly but I'm still happy with the overall effect.
All other paints were MRP and Vallejo Model Color for the brush.
