Messerschmitt Bf 109E


Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

Here is a 109 I finished last year  It represents a 109E-4 of 1/Jagdgeschwader 51 while in Northern France of August 1940.  As I usually do, I performed the following minor mods.

 

Fuselage

 

-               kit seat replaced with Ultracast seat

-               KMC resin cockpit sidewalls installed

-               antenna wire made from stretched sprue

-               upper cowl intake opened

-               cowl gun barrels replaced with Master brass barrels

-               engine starter crank opening and lift points drilled out

-               kit propeller and spinner replaced with Ultracast resin parts

-               exhaust replaced with Ultracast resin exhaust

 

Wings

 

-               wing gun barrels replaced with Master brass barrels

-               kit wheels replaced with Ultracast resin wheels

-               tail planes modified to eliminate the anhedral

 

Paint and Decals

 

-               airframe painted with Xtracolor  X202 Hellblau RLM 65, X201 RLM 02 Grau , X205 Dunklegrun RLM 71, X213 Gelb RLM04 and Model Master Classic White

-               all markings are from Hussar 48D005 Messerschmitt Me 109 E3A/E4 

-               model is weathered with chalk pastels

A fine job, and an interesting paint scheme to boot! I very much like the subtle weathering you’ve achieved with the pastels.

 

 Thanks for sharing!
