AntoineG Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hello, Here is my latest model: a 'classic' Messerschmitt Bf109E-4. The kit is the Airfix one in 1/72. I wanted to finish it with a white nose and found this option on an Almark decal sheet. I added a few details, from scratch or from aftermarket. The WIP can be found here: WIP Messerschmidt Bf109E-4 - Airfix 1/72 Cheers, Antoine 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Excellent job. The white nose adds a little extra to catch the eye! Well executed on the weathering too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wulfman Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Lovely build, your mottling is very realistic. Wulfman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jean Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Hi Antoine, you have built a lovely 109! The Airfix kit looks very convincing and your take is spot on! Congrats! I have one, for unknown reasons, on the shelf of doom and a couple more in the stash... one of the best buys I have made in the last few years! Shame you decided to give the svastikas a miss, as it would have added character. Well done. JR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntoineG Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 Hello, Thank you all for your encouraging comments. @veg, can't wait to see yours on the forum @jean, with regards to the svastikas, according to Almark, they were painted out. Even if I wasn't able to verify Almark instructions with a picture of the actual aircraft, I happily decided to believe them. Now, was I right or not? Here is a question for the Experten. 🤔 Cheers, Antoine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Pete Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Nice work. 👍 I'm just finishing up an Airfix 109 myself. First attempt at a German WW2 fighter and possibly my last... The mottling is a real ig-pay to paint! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
