David Koktavý Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) This is a new kit in my small RAFwaffe collection. This BF-109 G14 originally captured together with another 109 in the Netherlands in January 1945 was displayed on Farnborough event in October 1945. After then was probably scrapped. The kit is from Hasegawa dual combo. I made necessary changes to get a right look of this particular plane (e.g. weapons were dismantled). Decals are from Rising Decals sheet named "Under new management". The only missing thing is an inscription on the propeller blade, which was originally made by chalk. I did it by thin brush with moistened AK water chalk fragments. I hope you like it. Edited July 4, 2020 by David Koktavý 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackroadkill Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 That’s so cool! Funnily enough I was looking at a photo of that aircraft the other day and trying to figure out what had been written on the propeller blade - your model has solved the puzzle for me! Thanks very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Funny how a coat of paint can totally change the impression of an aircraft. Excellent Rafwaffe model! A real eye-opener. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much! In fact, It is not my original solution. I was very inspired by build found here: https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/2857-132-hasegawa-bf109-g-14-raf-farnborough/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Very nice indeed! Would be great to discover it wasn't scrapped, but they probably did not think of the historic value at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
