Here's another blast from my past. Yup another OOB Hasegawa 109. In case you were wondering where my short tailed G10 got it's tail from. Here it is. It was a short tailed G-6(or 14?) kit. I grafted the taller tail on it to make this G-14. I find it easier to make the cut between the stations and smooth everything later. I don't know why people prefer glue joints to fall on natural panel lines. I find it a bear to get a nice clean panel on a glue joint. That's just me. This plane appealed to me for the same reasons as the other 109 I just posted. Painted over markings, late war hodge podge colors, Luftflotte 4 yellow ends. The cool Croatian markings sealed the deal for me. Like the other 109 this plane was finished with a mix of Aeromaster, Floquil and Modelmaster enamels and weathered with pastels. That's it. Gotta go eat breakfast. Be well Ron

Hello everyone, Bf109 G-14 by AZ model, not a great kit but it was cheap 😀 Added small PE set for cockpit and vacu canopy. Decals are by Peddinghaus, which were sadly not very good; you can see thru the white and they have some inaccuracies Also carrier film is not pre-cutted so you have be careful when cutting them out Airbrushed with AK Real colors Weathering done with oil paints and crayons Enjoy!

Hi all, Is the scheme below legit? I stumbled across some profiles of this plane, all three more or less the same, but could not find a photograph of this one. With the usual suspicion of 'never blindly trust a colour profile' I do not recall ever seeing a photo of a G-14 (Beule on the cowling, Erla Haube and wooden tail) with Hungarian markings at all; only G-10's or G-6's. Can someone shed some light on this enigmatic bird? The only info I found is that it was of the 101 Fighter group and that it was stationed in Germany, April 1945. The half-retracted tailwheel is a bit suspect, but another profile shows an antenna behind the canopy and a non-retractable tailwheel. Cheers, Luka

Hi all, I have been allowed to participate in this GB despite the current state of the Hasegawa 1/48 Bf109s I am entering. Thanks, I really appreciate it. Some years ago I started collecting Hasegawa Bf109s, and I now have most of the issues. I didn't just collect them, I also built some of them (and started building even more). This is why I have a bunch of Bf109s waiting for me to finish them, and this is what I will try to do now. This is the current stateof my bunch: Two G-4s (Italian AF issue): And a number of G-6/G-14s of various issues (but how many?): The G-4s might end up as Italian or JG52 aircraft. The G-6s will most likely end up as JG3 aircraft with shooting stars or eyes on the cowling bulges, and the early G-14 will end up as Barkhorn's kite. The leaves a couple of aircraft to be decided for (or at least a couple of fuselages - let's see if I find the wings somewhere). Jens
