'excerpt' from a lovely 'new' image just sold on ebay for 326 euros depicting Bf 109 F-4 Trop fighters of 8./ JG 27 on the island of Rhodes during early 1943.The aircraft are (presumably) finished in Sandgelb with squiggles and stripes of Olivgrün

Nice pic Neil, thanks for posting it up.

Look how worn the back of the props are too. Nice photos, would make a nice model colour scheme.

The anti weathering brigade would soon be on your back saying the blades would never have been allowed to get in that state which is why it is always handy to have a pic like this to throw back at em.

It'd be a nice scheme to have ready for the Eduard F when it comes out next year that is providing they don't make a dogs dinner of it like they have with the G.

Eduard F? Hadn't heard about that one. 1/48?

Yes, 1/48. Should be out in the first half of next year. Then they're going to get round to fixing that mess of a G or so they told me when I asked about it at Telford.

...now there's a thought - something to forward to Jan!
