Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3 1/72 Airfix


Recommended Posts

Hi fellow modellers,

 

this is result my of latest "weekend" build (took me actually 6 days to complete). I must have a soft spot for "outsider" kits which I usually prefer in favour of much better kits... You may know the Airfix effort, not completely bad, but also with odd areas a details. I simply built it as it came with only most striking details replaced as were the propeller, wheels and some cockpit details. The "109" boffins will hopefully forgive the E-4 windshield, but I did not intend to ruin a vacform canopy I save for my next AMG builds. The decals are from recent Hannant's "Spanish Civil War" sheet.

 

Cheers

Libor

WOW - officially impressed - I couldn't get that quality of finish from the 1/48 - let alone a 1/72 :clap2:

 

Air frame numbers up the side too - totally mind blowing :clap2:

Very nice indeed. One of my favourite aircraft and schemes.

 

I like that you haven't overdome the weathering; SCW 109's were kept quite clean.

 

Outstanding for 6 days!

 

:goodjob:
