Under new Management...1/48 Messerschmitt Bf109G-10 (Mtt.Regensburg), 401 Sqn RCAF


Recommended Posts

#6/2019

And the next bird rolls out from my dad´s factory.

Hasegawa kit with Rising Decals, plastic rods and lead wire for the brake lines, Eduard seatbelts, EZ Line for antenna wires, exhaust flame dampers are PE parts from the Eduard G-10 kit, Gunze, Tamiya, MRP and AK paints used.
Shortened the main gear legs for about 2mm to make the aircraft look more realistic.

The aircraft was a former NJG11 bird and was captured by the Canadians of 401 Sqn RCAF in Faßberg/Germany in April 1945. The fate of this aircraft is unknown.
401 Sqn RCAF was disbanded on July 3rd 1945.

Always neat to see something like this, find it more interesting than a stock whatever. It shows a bit of history with it. To bad no one ever thought of saving these when they were captured, but people's mentality was a lot more different then.

Another great build. He must have a lot of gnomes working for him. Time to slow him down by getting him to do a bigger plane Like a Ju 290 or a ICM He 111H6 torpedo plane is 1/48. 

😄

He plans to build a Ju188, maybe also an Invader, let' see..

Yes, would be nice to have some more German warbirds today..

Another lovely build, Reini. Looks really strange in that scheme.

Something different to the "usual suspects" 😁

 

 

Thanks for all the comments, appreciated!

I have started a Ju 188A torpedo plane on the weekend. Dragon 1/48. It will have a lot of PE in it, resin Wells and brass gun barrels. This means it is going to be a long build for me.

Looking forward to it 😉

Except for some decals, my dad won´t use any aftermarktet stuff.
