celt Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 First off,apologies to all the Luftwaffe experts,the colours I have used are not accurate,they are the the closest I had to hand[me not being a Luftwaffe fan].This was the first 1/48 model I have completed in a long time,I much prefer building in the one true scale.Anyway,the kit is a snap tite kit you can glue and comes with decals and stickersI am told there are better bf109 kits out there,but as a first 1/48 kit it is great value at only £9.99.I enjoyed building it and that to me is what this great hobby of ours is all about,fun.As is the norm for me all paints are acrylic but this time slapped on with a big hairy stick. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin1967 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Looks fine to me, well done ! I always say, build and paint how you want and above all enjoy the hobby, plus I always use the big hairy stick for painting too. thanks for sharing your build. Kind of interested which acrylic paints did you use? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawzer Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 looks good to me! I've done a couple of those pegasus snap kits (got them for Christmas! ) - a hurricane and a p51b. Really enjoyed doing them..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorfinn Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Lovely work! I, too, love the Pegasus kits. I have their -G model 109, but hadn't realized they did an -E as well. Will have to check that out.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The p51 built up to not a bad little thing considering it has like 30 parts.... (ignoring the fact the white stripes should be yellow and the canopy silver and not black ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
