Hermann Graf Bf 109 G6 1/48 tamiya.


Recommended Posts

This plane was on standby as my customer could not decide which livery he wanted. Then he asked for Graf plane while with the short-lived JG50, a special Mosquito hunting unit. So I did use Eduard's decals on the excellent Tamiya 109 et voilà! Best regards.

Hi Zigomar

 

Very nice paintjob, but you painted (sorry for that) the wrong aircraft. Actually the Graf's machine was a Bf 109G-6 from Erla and so quite different from the model depicted by TAMIYA, which is a MTT Regensburg produced aircraft.

 

I just hope your customer doesn't know the differences between Erla and Mtt produced machines….

 

TAMIYA has also got it wrong with the JG54 machine as she is actually also an ERLA produced one.

 

Yes Bf 109G can be as tricky as Spitfires…….

 

Nice work anyway and TAMIYA is far more accurate (for an Mtt machine of course) than this EDUARD mixed scale caricature.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake! I had removed from an Eduard part the small bulge that goes under the right MG hump, but the carpet monster had a day wit it! Cheers!

I can feel your pain, I have two cats ! That's the only reason I buy Eduard kits, for them to play with the PE parts….
