Hmm....lets see which is the better looking aircraft between the Spitfire and the Hunter? That's easy.......Hawker Sea Fury!

That's a win in my book! Nicely done!

What a beauty! Nice photography as well!

What a nice looking Fortress! Well done!

Well poo, at least I was right about being wrong!

Very nice! According to my admittedly limited knowledge, there were no corsairs made without folding wings. Now, having stated that it is a guarantee that if there were corsairs made without wing folds it will now be made common knowledge because I said they didn't, You are welcome.😉

I would have called it the "Holy Mackerel!".

Looks right nice!

I'm curious as to why the two seat rendering has a ghost hoop on the pilots canopy?

Ah yes! Thanks for pointing that out.

I bieve those tubes emmitted a small amount of fuel as a de-icer.

I ran into this same question while building my Tempest. I was of the impression that later int he war, for some aircraft at least, it was more practical to replace the different colored bulbs with clear bulbs and use colored lenses which didn't wear out as often as the bulbs did. Maybe it was easier to have a stock of clear bulbs vs three or more different colors. Note: this is all conjecture on my part and not intended to be construed as the final word. I am just a model builder after all.

I used to think most of my builds had gone pear shaped, now I shall have to compare them to some other mishapen fruit...maybe a rotten strawberry. That looks amazing!

Is this commercially available? I may have to have one!

Your metal finish looks perfect! Nice work.

I don't know, I think those panels might have a bit too much wash. Must be for a contest where the lighting is poor.

Well done! I would be thrilled to have that on my shelf!

Now that makes me want to build this kit! Very nice!

Nice! This is why I like to build just one scale. I never knew the CL-415 was nearly as big as a PBY Catalina! Now I have even more respect for how they are thrown about the sky when in use!

That looks right nice! I love the colors, but then I am a sucker for gray/green camo... Thank you for sharing your build!

Messerschmitt Bf 109G10U4 Erla captured USAAF T2 122 ex Luftwaffe 6.JG52 Yellow 13 WNr 611943 01 If you copy the line above and do a search you can find two more pics of this aircraft from different times after it came to the U.S. In one the spinner is dark and in the other pic the whole nose was a different color. The was from a search of "Wright field captured aircraft display WWII" https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/wright-field_22-jpg.280184/

Rob, Sorry for hijacking your thread. I was hoping that identifying something unique would lead to a clue as to when and where the display was. I have found a couple of more pictures of the same 109 at different locations which identify it more clearly but I will refrain from posting them here. The hangar that the aircraft are in is not included in the set up for the Wright Field display.

Now that's some proper camo! Well done!

Here is the Eduard G-10 with an Accurate Miniatures P-51A spinner.

Is that a P-51A spinner on the Bf109?
