BIG X Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Please add me to the list - I have 2 x 1/24 Airfix kits languishing in the loft that I haven't had the will to build, but this might just spur me into action. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 Welcome to the fun everyone and apologies for not making the time to respond on a more personal level. Here we are now at 13 names already and a couple of potential projects shown by way of Erwin's 48th scale Fujimi G-K kit and BIG X thinking to get not one but two of the Airfix 24th scale 'Superkit's down from the loft. For my own part there's a pair of the Eduard 'Overtrees' 45.5th scale G-6 kits in a box under the bench with one set of decals in there to create a Croatian machine and another set of decals on the way for Yugoslavian options with a plan to try for the UMe-109 conversion. What's everyone else planning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Haha... I don't plan to deviate from building 72nd scale aircraft models only. My last AZmodel Gustav will be built before this GB so the workbench will be clear for one or two of them Tamiya G-6 delicacies. Of the 14 Bf109:s in my display cabinet, only 11 are models of Finnish AF MT:s. I see no reason to add to the non-Finnish part of them 🙂 Is this a good plan? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) Sounds a good plan to me @vppelt68 Any thoughts on which more Finnish schemes you'd like to do? *Edit* Rush posting again Edited November 10, 2019 by Col. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a Finnish scheme, no other options! Nah it was me not reading you right. I've also had a quick look at the Finnish 109s and didn't realise quite how many great schemes they were painted in so it looks as if you've plenty options 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two plus builds for me, and the leading contenders are. one of these two bare metal G6’s. Then the other kit will be one of these three. Hans-Joachim Marseille “F” ⬆️ This G8 ⬆️ or this G6. https://www.asisbiz.com/il2/Bf109G/NAG12.html ⬇️ though the picture is off ? Its Green 5. Thats where I'm at right now. If they go quick then I’ll probably do a third. Dennis Edited November 11, 2019 by Corsairfoxfouruncle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 I've come across 'Red 8' recently as a subject somewhere but can't remeber if it was a decal sheet or an option in one of the AZ kits @Corsairfoxfouruncle but the Yugoslav-based G-8 looks particularly interesting. An interesting selection of options you have there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Red “8” and Green “5” are both options on Eduards and AZ kits and there’s an A/M sheet with the G8 but I've already done the G8 once before a few years ago. I just like the camouflage on that so its one i may re-do. I do believe the “Marseille” 109 is widely available in every scale so wont be hard to find or replicate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
