Mitch K Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Coat of matt and the interior canopy colour done. Once all this is complete I'll add the microscopic barrels, aerials and sub-microscopic aileron balances. The photo's a bit nurgly, but it shows the bomb ejectors I added to the bomb rack - they're quite obvious on the real thing, so I thought I'd better do something about it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Dapple Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Looking good Mitch, nice work ...There's a simpler E3/E4 boxing, but I'm not sure if it actually provides the early E3 canopy. Sadly no, it doesn't, I really can't understand why Airfix did not include both canopy types, it would have increased the available options no end... Cheers, Stew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch K Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 With the canopy painted and panel line washed, I added the cannon barrels, antenna and the like, including an EZ-Line aerial, so with a few touches here and there, I'm calling her done. Despite the fact the Luftwaffe operated from open fields, the aircraft seemed, like their RAF counterparts, to remain clean, neat and tidy. So, no more weathering and dirt! I'll post a few more completed shots, and do a post in the gallery soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch K Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 A few more finished shots. Others are in the Gallery thread. Cheers all, thanks for all the lovely comments. I've really enjoyed this build and I'd recommend the Airfix Bf-109E to anyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
