109 fan Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 This is the Fly Model Bf 108, a very nice short run kit. It has been released in several guises, including post-war versions made by Nord in France. KP has also released this model, but with the very nice resin parts reproduced in less nice styrene. Build thread can be found in the Work in Progress section. 41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 That's a nice looking little aeroplane. It really looks smart in civilian clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Delta 210 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Great result. The canopy (if that is the right word for it!) looks especially convincing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLurker Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Nice. How the blazes do you get such crisp edges to the canopy framework in 1/72? I always end up with raggedy edges no matter how carefully I mask the clear areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CedB Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Very nice model and some very effective scratching, especially the painted decal strip framing - great result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWM Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Looks great indeed! At first I was almost sure that it is 1/48 Cheers J-W Edited June 9, 2017 by JWM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Beautifully finished Taifun that really brings out the elegant lines of this touring machine. And the basic shape of the kit looks much better than the old Heller version. I was a bit perplexed by the photos, that at first glance seemed to suggest two different models, one with a mid blue finish and the other one light grey… Superb modelling! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali62 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 one of my favourite aircraft, and you have done such a great job on it, the small scale making it even more of a superb result, well done. Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
