Reini78 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Because there has always a 109 to be in work, my dad started already a new one after the Czech Avia. Gonna be a G-4 that has been captured by the SAAF on Sicily in 1943.

Reini78 Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 some more decal progress Worked with Rising Decals before and had no problems.

Col. Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Nice work so far. This one certainly looks different from the usual 109 we see. My only experience with Rising Decals was that they were brittle and needed considerable care to get the best from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the "AX" codes dissolved in the water....this sheet isn´t produced anymore but found one at Misterkit, already on the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
