George_ Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hello everyone, Bf109 G-14 by AZ model, not a great kit but it was cheap 😀 Added small PE set for cockpit and vacu canopy. Decals are by Peddinghaus, which were sadly not very good; you can see thru the white and they have some inaccuracies Also carrier film is not pre-cutted so you have be careful when cutting them out Airbrushed with AK Real colors Weathering done with oil paints and crayons  Enjoy!  George   18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hi George, this is a great looking 109, irrespective of the quality of the initial kit. You did a grand job of it! Re the Peddinghaus decals, I have read a couple of reviews about them, and to be truthful, none of them were complimentory. Quality and accuracy were always the main gripes. But as I said, you did good! Â JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Schilhart Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Well-done representation of Hartmann's mount. Aftermarket parts add great detail to an already good model kit. Peddinghaus decals can be problematic, as I learned the hard way: when I touched the sheet the colors smudged and rubbed off ...  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edger Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Nice, looks more G-6 than G-14 though. What didn't you like about AZ's 109? I have never built one so I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What didn't you like about AZ's 109? I have never built one so I don't know. might as well be G-6 since early G-14 and late G-6 looks the same AFAIK but this aircraft is mostly presented as G-14 so I went with it 🙃 The kit doesnt have any major flaws but couple of annoying small ones, like prop hub and spinner is slightly bigger in diameter then front of the fuselage, so you have to sand it down, keep it round etc. Also all joints need some putty and for me thats the least favorite part of any kit 😅  George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Looks excellent to me - well exceeding the expectations for an (apparently) ordinary kit. Definitely a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
