Hi to all In addition to all the obligations, i finally managed to finish one model AZ Model Messerschmitt in version E7. I was intrigued with those specific markings, because I did not know that this lunatic (Reinhard Heydrich) flew. Pity that he survived when he was shot down, probably more of unhappy people from Czechoslovakia/Prague would survive the war.. All in all, the standard AZ model, with few additions, AK REAL colours, and minimal weathering, as his plane did not fly long before it were shot down. I hope you like the model. Wish you all Merry Christmas and all best in New Year, best regards Djordje

Hi Gents , I present to you my Helmut Wick Me 109 E4 as it was at the time of his fate in November 1940. I must admit that my tag " BoB" is not precisely appropriate , as common agreement of end of BoB is October 1940.. Forgive me for that. Anyway, For me this scheme is interesting as it shows , in my opinion , the Luftwaffe transition move from "offensive" scheme on aircrafts , to "defensive" one." "wind is turning" Not far from that, RAF would change for fighters from DE/DG to MG/DG scheme .. Guys, not pretend to be 100% pertinent on that 😉 So this plane camo was toned down with brush application of green all over light parts ( included yellow nose identification markings) and previous double chevrons markings were overpainted , choose to represent it with RLM 02 to stay compliant with " toned down" overall apparence . just a kind of feeling :-)) Painted with Gunze paints. seing pictures... see that there is things to improve/clean.. 😉 On to the Pics ! Any comments welcomed ! Hope you'll like it ! Cheers !!

Hi Does anyone know if ME 109E supercharger air intake has a screen behind the right-angled vanes? Thinking about improving this part in Airfix 1/24 kit. Logic says 'yes' but it is not visible in any photos i have seen. Perhaps further inside supercharger? Cheers
