Holzhamer Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Using the superlative 1/48 Tamiya kit, but leaving the gimmicks aside, here is my artistic view of the final plane of Wolf-Udo Ettel, when hit by AA fire he crashed to his death in Italy, July 1943. At the time he was an ace with 124 victories. Hope you like it 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 lovely! the Tamiya kit is a gem, isn´t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holzhamer Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Yes it is, although I did some scratch work and opened those vent scoops, the accuracy and ease of construction truly are benchmark stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Very nicely built and finished Gustav. Like the subtle weathering. Cheers Malcolm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Brantley Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Wow! Where do I start? The amazing attention to detail? Or, the spot-on weathering? Paintwork? Yes, and superb photos too! I love this model Holzhamer! It's kind of hard to believe but I've never built a 109 before and the only 109 kit in my model stash is the old Hobbycraft 109-E. I may break my resolution to not buy more new kits and get this gem of a kit! If it turns out half this good, I'm a happy modeler.😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Dyck Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Very Impression work and sad story . It is really a perfect kit. I built it too last year as you can see on one of my posts.

Just take some time thinking how you want the plane to look and with some dedication it will be a rewarding experience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
