vesthepes Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Hi chaps Back after a while, it's always nice to post something finally done!! 1:48 Hasegawa Bf109G-2 Black four, Kroat JG52 from the eastern front 41-45 It's not straight out of box, it includes a resin cockpit and Aeromaster decals. I did some riveting too, which is quite easy on a 109. It was a fun and quite quick build, the plan is to make room for the other newer 109s from Eduard and Tamiya, Hasegawa being a bit obsolete... but still in my opinion it still is a nice little kit.

Roman Schilhart Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Good rendition of a classic aircraft, you've done a proper job! That yellow nose always adds a dash of color. In my humble opinion the Hasegawa kit stands out well against current rivals from the East - it certainly looks like a Bf-109!

Marco Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Nice mottling. Very well blended. How did you do the antenna wire details? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vesthepes Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 Thanks The wire is made by a heated and stretched sprue piece of plastic. Takes a little practice to get the desired width. But once you figure it out it's easy. Harder part is mounting it, precision glue helps at that... The wire tighteners were done by pouring small drops of glue onto the wire... cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
