Topdrawings 66

Focke-Wulf FW 190 S, F, G models

Bit dissapointed as I was hopeing it would contain several profiles of the G model as I am finding information on the operators of that variant and their colour schemes rather scarce.

Received this morning from eBay

Combat Colours No7  Scale Aircraft Modelling Colours Focke-Wulf Fw190 in World War Two

And again little to no information about the colour schemes of the G version but what little there is is usefull, just no colour schemes for the 1,300 aircraft the book says were made :banghead:

After watching The Matrix for the first time in about 10 years last night we watched Johnny Mnemonic.  Terrible movie, but it did cause me to go to the Sci Fi section of stately zen manor's vast libraries, dig out the original short story and sit up late reading it.
It's contained in Burning Chrome, William Gibson's short story collection.  Worth a look.
The original Johnny Mnemonic was written in 1981 and yet it hasn't dated anywhere nearly as much as the 1995 movie.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Crappy picture.... I was trying to position it in a way that my desk light didn't obscure anything. 

EDIT:  Hell, it turned out alright, not that crappy after all.  ;D

An excellent book.  I have a copy around the place somewhere.  I must look for it and reread it. :thumbsup:
