Romanian bf109E-3

[Muller]

This is one nice little kit, I didn't need any filler at all. The only complaint would be the decals are on the thick side, LOTS of setter needed. I started the build as the E-7 trop option, thats why the drop tank rack is fitted, but I had a bit of a disaster with the decals (I applied the crosses without a coat of Klear and couldn't get them to conform to the panel lines). So I stripped it and went with the E-3 Romanian option.

I tried some post-shading on this one which is a first, also I used some artists masking fluid applied with a sponge for the chipping, a bit excessive I think, but should look good on the next Japanese warbird I do!

Thanks for looking!

Cheers fellas I'd highly recommend this kit, I reckon its nicer than the Tamiya offering.

Really nice bird! I like your finish and chipping as well. Have this kit in a queue but thinking i'm not ready yet for that high level need few more "hamsters"

Anyway, your 109 is great!

Can't add any more to what the rest of the chaps have said. Really nicely done. Like that a whole lot !

Wow, really nice, and a refreshing change from the innumerable German versions. I especially like your subtle weathering on the panel lines, and the paint chipping. I'm always tempted to do chipping on my WWII builds, but always chicken out. One of these days...

Cheers,
