Chocolate, cheese and Messerscmitt: Swiss Bf 109 G6


Recommended Posts

Hello!

I started building this kit on March, 2015 and just finished it last January.

It is a really good model (lot of details, wonderful surfaces) and the little problems are now solved with the new edition.

Swiss colours add a flashy touch on the classic scheme... and my wife is from this nice country ;), so I decided to paint this Bf 109 this way.

 

Some pictures:

If you want more pics of the finished model, follow this link: http://fighters.forumactif.com/t81668-chocolat-fromage-etc-etc-enfin-l-oiseau-en-photos

The work in progress thread is here (I'm struggling with the pictures links):

 

I am really happy to share with you my first finished 1/48 kit after a loooong pause with this hobby.

Comments and critics are welcome of course!

 

Cheers

Grüezi Panzer, congrats  - one of the best Swiss Messerschmitts I have seen being build. Being Swiss, I like it especially. Painting and weathering is top notch.

 

Grüess us Züri.

Splendid one O nine!

You feel the finesse in every pics.

Radio wire is just an exemple, I wonder how you managed to assemble this.

 

Next step, the Mustang!

Great Mustang. Which kit? Are the crosses painted?

Thanks Antoine! Radio wire is not so sophisticate, it's just Uschi van der Rosten's ez line. Wonderful product that I tested for the first time, you don't need to overglue or cute with a "one micron accuracy".

Next step... the Croatian Beauty, then the wonderful Su 33, then a F15E, then maybe... the kinetic F18C with a swiss scheme of Nato Tiger Meet. ... Probably not before the next decade, I build models at a snail's pace!:think:

At Payerne Air 14 I saw a beautiful Mustang all metallic with Swiss colours. An idea for later?

 

Cheers

Cheers Michael,

Don't want to hijack, you might find a WIP over here, IIRC.

Every markings are painted.

Very nice 109. Lovely paintwork.

No matter that the modelling rate is slow, when the final result is as good as this :thumbsup2: 

 

Switzerland is indeed, a beautiful country; good to see a model subject from

there.

 

:goodjob:
