Walking Bird...1/48 Messerschmitt Bf109E-3 JG51


Recommended Posts

slowly coming together

sadly the kit is not as good as the newer 109s from Eduard, had some fit problems with the upper cowl, had to cut away parts of the engine

legs shortened a bit so that the kit doesn´t become a storch

brake lines as usual with plastic rods and lead wire

my dad decided not to do Priller´s aircraft because it is built so often, therefore he will do Hans Illner´s "white 2" with the kiss lips and cigarette using decals from Cutting Edge

To be fair, Eduard does tell you to remove plastic if you wish to have the cowling closed. But I agree they should rework the E model and have the engine as a Brassin add on.
