Mal_Belford Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Allright....where to start...This got number 13:2 (my thirtens finnished model and my second diorama) i keep them numbered since my restart approx 2,5 years ago, havent builded in 19-20 years,some of you allready know that, but i keep them numbered in chrnological order.The kit is Eduard BF109E1 1:32 Profipak, the kit got many resemblies to a short run, but nothing serious that i couldn handle, this one is oob build, and it were a quicky fun relax build, i decided to paint all them crosses including the swastika, since the kit did not contain that, and them decal crosses were far to small on the wings,many know that i paint everything that i can paint,Made a diorama for this one, the pilot is various parts, Verlinden and hasegawa, and some various scratchwork, as the table and the pilots sunchair.Hte situation is 1940 on small island called Wangerroge, pilot Kurt Ubben sitting relaxing with a cup of coffe, waiting to get his aircraft ready, only cowlings need to be in place...reason for engine change is that earlier he got a hit on the engine going back home and he is lycky to get home, as can see the shell hole on the old engine cowling. Maybe not 100% right, but its good enough for me./Mal 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcclure Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Great aeroplane and dio but I think I like that little utility cart the best - really excellent work. Have I seen that somewhere before in one of your WIPs? Great work as ever Mal.

Spitfire31 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Very neat and evocative diorama! An excellent demonstration of how time and talent devoted to the environment works wonders adding 'life' to a scale model. Since you were not overly concerned with authenticity, as stated, I won't complain about the ailerons not being drooped some 11° even though the flaps are fully deployed. ;-) IMHO, the structure of the fabric covered surfaces is unnecessarily emphasised, since it was hardly visible even on the full scale original… Beautiful work all around!

Kind regards, Joachim Thanks Joachim. This build were a relax build, and fun, i know that is is not 100% right, that were never the purpose, as i felt i needed to come away from my FW190 A8 R2 Sturmbock a little while (Hasegawa) lots of scratchwork, reading books (got FW190 Vol1 and 3)and so on... One previous finnished Sturmbock Hasegawa 1:32 FW190A8 converted in to a R2 /Mal Edited November 7, 2014 by Mal_Belford 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSTON Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Mal, I have thoroughly enjoyed your Diorama build and its absolutely INCREDIBLE with the small touches that makes your diorama come alive. the minute detailed little touches stand out as does your Aircraft...BEAUSTIFUL Bf 109 .. the pilot figure is EXCEPTIONAL looking and with his deck chair gives the diorama a relaxed look .. JUST GORGEOUS.. KUDOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
