replicant Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Hello mates, here my Mersu Mercedes by eduard built recently with changed (very nice) figures from CMK (they were german from Siebel accessories), now finnish with selfmade caps and finer details. Before research i didnt knew how dirty the finnish Gustavs were in the 1950ies! Only flying full throttle, no cleaning anymore! Fun only for the Finns!

SAT69 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 That looks great and a pleasant change from the traditional Luftwaffe markings! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 One of the most attractive 109 schemes, perfectly done 👍 Congrats! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Fabulous and surprising model! Superb execution – and those figures are amazing, with character faces in 1:48th! One of the most interesting '09 models I've seen. Kind regards, Joachim 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold55 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 This looks fantastic! I don't know what they did in the 50's but if you look at an air racer today they try to milk ever last bit of speed from the machine. Rivets and panel lines are filled with putty and the whole aircraft gets polished to a mirror like finish. By the time it lands it has picked up some grime but still looks pretty good. I did not realise anyone actually raced the Me-109, it would have been fantastic to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
