Revell 1/32 Messerschmitt Bf109G-6


Recommended Posts

This is Revell's recent 1/32 Bf109G-6. A nice enough kit, well-detailed but rather over-engineered in places, especially the wings.  Finished in Xtracrylix 74/75/76 scheme in the markings of Oberfeldwebel Heinrich Bartels, 11./JG 27 in 1943. I faffed with the spinner for ages and ended up hand painitng it in the end. When I Googled Bartels' aircraft there seemed to many variations on a theme. Mine is another interpretation. I used the kit decals and some from the Peddinghaus sheet, the instructions of which left a lot to be desired. Anyway, here it is.
