stevej60 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Hi folk,s I can't imagine many of the aircraft brigade here on BM not checking out the superb Battle of Britain GB but just in case here's my take on Priller's 109,the kit is Airfix;s newer tool with Eduard;s weekend edition decals.The kit comes a very creditable second to Eduard's in comparison with the glazing not quite as well molded and the awful sprue attachment's on the separate leading edge slat's letting it down.Colour,s are all Tamiya which I mixed from photo,s and profile,s.Many thank's for looking.http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234984672-and-beware-the-hun-in-the-sun/page-1 Build can be found here.

Andy Dyck Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Excellent work Steve! Very clean built and painted. Love the subtile weathering. Nice pic's too...and superb presentation. THX for sharing.

ancient mariner Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Nice build mate,do tell more about the mottled camo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Nice build mate,do tell more about the mottled camo Just a simple base coat then as my Airbrush is nice but not the best for detail work I tape the end of an old pen to it to refine the flow and set it to a lower PSI it worked pretty well on another 109 the first time so I tried it on this one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatcawthorne Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 That's what I like about your builds Steve, quality and quantity in spade loads. Your yearbook would be the same as my decadebook!! Keep 'em coming! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Many thank's everyone,if anyone,s mad enough to try the airbrush trick beware of drips,don't spray over the model work with the brush horizontal to the kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usetherudders Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Very nice great paintwork, would totally agree about the spruce gates on the leading edge slats, simply awful and does let the kit down but on the whole a nice kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
