Holzhamer Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Hi everyone! Culminating a very unproductive modelling year, I finished yesterday this one. It’s Wingsy kits Bf.109 E-1 model in 1/48, using some Kagero decals for the pilots personal markings, the white charging bull and the Mickey cartoon. The pilot was Oblt. Karl Ebbighausen, from JG 26 in the mid of 1939, few months/weeks before the outbreak of WW2, and who previously done a commission in Spain with Legion Condor (hence the markings). This is a great kit, only let down is the excessive use of PE for parts that could have been in plastic. Hope you like it and wish you a splendid 2022 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokyo Raider Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Hi Holzhammer... i love your Emil! Great to see a wingsy kit and i ordered a few! I have a question... is that the prop in the kit? I saw comments that kit prop was wider blade. Yours looks right to me... thanks and great job!

Hi there Bob, you caught that right, the prop isn’t the one supplied in the box, much like the pilots seat and the exhaust stacks. I don’t know for sure where I got them from since I had the blades in my spare bits box. Perhaps it’s from SBS. Thanks!

Tokyo Raider Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Ok... I also got aftermarket seat and exhaust ordered for my kits. I just got some ultracast props for the Wingsy kits today... Your prop looks great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
