allyby Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) 1/48 Scale. This is only my second and third builds roughly a 45 yr absence so please be gentle with me First up is a Messerschmitt Bf 109E-7 flown by Joachim Muncheberg 7./JG26 " Schlagerter" Gela Sicily Spring 1941. Second up, Supermarine SpitfireMk Vb No 229 Squadron Royal Air force Qrendi Malta December 1942. And this is my first attempt at weathering a model. Both together. Thanks for viewing. Ally.

How many coats did that need?! Just a couple of coats but I had to do an extra watered down coat on the darker brown on the Spitfire. 11 hours ago, aircooled said: Congratulations, they look great!
