Zigomar Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Hello folks. This is a nearly OOB built for a little exercise in Luftwaffe painting. But hell! Those kits are not conceived to be panel closed so the little walk in the countryside became a real struggle! The second point is the angle of the undercarriage, so once finished, and plainly dissatisfied with the stance of the model, I broke both legs to do them right. Yes I know, modeling is fun! This is the plane of Fritz Losigkeit, StaffelKapitan of 2/JG26 at Werl in March 40. All paint are Mr color lacquers, weathering was done with oils. Cheers.

Pauls9cb Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Great looking early pattern 109! Are the aerial insulators just dabs of glue painted white to simulate these often-omitted details? I always have a problem getting these to look right in the scale I'm working on. Like the weathering too. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan B Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 That looks great, the finish is just the way I like to see them. Duncan B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pauls9cb Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Simple, but quite effective. I'm always likely to over-complicate this soort of detail with the usual less satisfactory result. Good job yours though. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
