Tbolt Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Here's my effort on Modelsvit's 1/48th scale BF 109D. All I added to the kit was an oxygen hose, one lever in the cockpit, the landing gear indicators, the rudder control wires and canopy wire. Painted with Humbrol, Mr. Color and Xtracrylix. Not a bad kit, though the fit in places wasn't the best as some of the parts had a bit of a step in them from the mold misalignment. 35 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Brilliant job on that Bf 109D! I'll probably do a very similar scheme on my Avis Bf 109D in 1/72nd scale. Regards, Jason P.S. I just had a butcher's at my AM decals and I have the very markings for this aircraft. However, they have the spinner being white.

Ferrata Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Lovely build. The Hikoki book on the Condor Legion has a colour plate of this aircraft with a red spinner. The b&w picture on page 109 (coincidence) shows it at the time of Molders’ 4th kill in a dark tone, could be red or black or? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went for RLM 71 as its not black at this point anyway - the markings are black and its noticeable lighter. Lynn Ritger went for RLM 71 so I stuck with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) I thought yours was black, but I can see it is RLM 71. It's definitely not white in the photograph so I think I'll go with the RLM 71 - I know I have some of that laying around.
