Some old files found again

Found a few discs with some old files of model pics and a few digital montages, so thought I'd share.

There are a few more but need cropping.

Cheers

Love the twin .193

Thanks Narses2
But I've just realised the Bv193 is not strictly mine.
It was me messing around in photoshop with one of Josha Hildwine's excellent illustrations for an idea for a 193Z model (Planet x 2).
So if the moderator thinks it should be pulled please do.

Many thanks especially to Josha.

Wonderful!

(the Bv193Z above all). Could you tell us which is which, models and/or computer fake pictures? Thanks!

Hi Tophe
The HG262 is a semi-scratch built model, digital photograph and photoshopped.
When I say scratch built I mean this version made from parts from other 262 kits and a bit of bodging.

The Bv193Z is based on Josh Hildwine's illustration and done in photoshop.

The other Bv is a straight pic of a model.

A few more.

Tail wheel on the Fw P1 is broken thanks to my being so clumsy.

The other is Planet's 1/72nd Arado P2.

Not as good as most on this site.

Cheers

Thanks for these great pictures!

For the Bv193Z different ways (if I have understood

), Google found not what you were referring to, do you have a link?
Besides, in the Putnam book German aircraft of WW2, the RLM code 193 is for an Ago project, your one being the Bv P193 (confirmed by http://www.luft46.com/bv/bvp193.html ). So this is a Bv P.193Z, wonderful as well!

I doubt Josha will disagree with the posting. Well, not without a medium anyway as he's sadly deceased.

The Bv P.178 looks fantastic, especially considering ti's a Unicraft kit...

Thanks Wooksta.
Sorry to hear about Josha.
I doubt he would mind putting his great work to good use.

In the meantime: If you like the Bv P178 then have some more...

Yes it is a Unicraft 1/72nd. Not too bad to build but with hindsight I could have done better with a little more patience.

Found another old pic.
Early attempts at digital photoshop imaging with a model.

Cheers
