Roman Schilhart Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Hello, may I show you the new AZ Model Bf-109 G10 kit. I first saw it at Modelbrno back in June, where I bought three boxings. All of them are labeled as "WNF/Diana", indicating the factory who built them (Wiener Neustädter Flugzeugwerke in Austria and Diana in Czechia). These models are a little different to those assembled at Erla or Regensburg plants. I was lulled into (false) safety by having built a number of AZ's G-6 kits, which were easy to build. That's not the case with the G-10 as I learned the hard way (my first attempt went into the bin). The reason is the oversized cockpit floor that needs to be reduced in width considerably. Once you've figured out the issue, work commences as usual. The model represents "Rosemarie", a machine of II/JG52 that operated from Czech airfields at the end of the war. I found one photograph of the original: The model was painted with acrylics from the Gunze/Mr.Hobby range. Photographs: Wolfgang Rabel, IGM Cars & Bikes Here's the cockpit office, refined with etch from Brengun: And on to the model ... Photo-etch antennas, seatbelts, scissor links and flaps from Brengun. Pitot tube by Master Model. Decals from the box. With kind regards from Vienna, Roman Edited September 16, 2015 by Roman Schilhart 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildeSau75 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 just wow - it's unbelievable it's 1/72. I love it. I wonder how you guys manage to paint camouflage schemes so perfectly on so small models. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight_Flyer Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Very nice model. Bit surprised the G-10 kit has a problem not found in the G-6. Need to remember that as I have bought a few AZ 109 kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Fleming Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) What's the difference between the WNR and Regensburg G-10s? the refs I have seem to indicate that externally they were identical (Except for the wheel bulges) Edited September 17, 2015 by Dave Fleming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter AZmodel/Admiral Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Roman, very nicely built model. Is beautiful. Otherwise, the interior is a little problem with smuggling. Technologically, the new hull made us a little problem. It needed a little grind the floor. Apology. Other new hulls for the G-10 Regensburg and Erla this problem have not already. Otherwise, the differences between the versions are very well described in the book of BF 109 Late version of MMP books. Fuselages for Erla, WNF / Regensburg and Diana are really very much different, and we all gradually prepare for production. Best regards Petr AZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
