Another option for mottles if your airbrush won’t tighten up its’ pattern is to use a mask. Punch some random shaped holes in a card or whatnot and hold it maybe 1/2 inch or so from the surface while spraying to give the feathered edging.
Used that tecnique on this 190.

Main decals applied last night, stencils are next today/tonight - whenever I have free time. Then the final fiddly bits & bobs before calling her done.

Some that served in Italy wore that sort of scheme.

Carlos, from what I could learn, this
pre-painted Profinish Fw-190F Revell kit represents just such a bird from 1/SG4 Based in Sardinia, Italy in 1944. I bought it on a whim one day at Hobby Lobby. When given a little TLC, it looks pretty good. I've never taken it to the airport but will when I get a base and backdrop done for my desert-based Hobbycraft 109.
