shan Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hi All, just finished the Revelle 1/32 scale ME 109 G10. I did this one OOB, and tried out the German Mottling Camouflage. this is a trial run for my Hasegawa Fw 190D with all the aftermarket goodies. i posted these images on my facebook ac, and the main comment was about the splaying of the landing gears, unfortunately it cant be splayed out in the revelle kit, my left landing strut snapped. so its best to cut a wedge and insert a piece of plastic as the neck of the gear strut before gluing it into the slot at the wheel wells. The Revelle build guide was also a bit confusing, the paint guide does not match up with the description and some parts are numbered wrongly. other than that, it was pretty easy and no real big issues. hope you enjoy these pics 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Good looking finish and detailing! The overall impression is a bit compromised by the landing gear, however, which looks all wrong (photo #5 from top) – more like a Spitfire gear! The Bf 109 had a distinctly splayed main landing gear and it should look like the one on this G-10: Methinks you may have mixed up the gear legs in order to get that strange configuration. 😉 Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairtrigger Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Splendid 109 ..... Cockpit is very impressive, as is the mottling and spinner..... Shame about the landing gear .... No way you can rectify it? Edited June 3, 2018 by Hairtrigger Grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shan Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 thanks guys for your comments, will have a go at it this weekend, think i will cut off the struts and reattach with a metal rod and bend it to splay out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twentecable Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Nice Me. I agree with predessors, very nice spinner overall finish and cockpit. Good luck with the landingstruts! Greetings TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
