gryphon28 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Evening everyone, This is my Eduard 1/48 weekend 109E. Painted with Mr Hobby and Tamiya and using the decals from the dogfight duo Airfix 109 as I thought the yellow nose looked so cool. I was pleased with how the exhaust came out and the restrained mottle. She was a fiddly build around the engine and I didn't care for the tail and main gear attachment points which seemed very fragile. That said she has been built a while now and is still a 3 pointer so I guess they are stronger than they looked. Any thoughts welcome. Thanks for looking.

28ZComeback Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 There is so much to like about this build and finish but I will focus on just one aspect: your finish on the nose is superb. The yellow is in scale and highly realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangor Lad Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Excellent build and finish. All to easy to go over the top but this is an excellent example of restrained weathering. Lovely! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
