Jazzy Jase Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Here's my entry into the Groupbuild. Tamiya's BF109E-3 in 1/48 with a few extras. 109E3_01 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr Montex masks and markings Hobbydecal stencils Master guns for the wing guns and Quickboost guns for the cowling guns Ultracast wheels Ultracast seat Ultracast prop & spinner Ultracast exhausts So far I've painted the cockpit using Gunze RLM02 with RLM66 for the Instrument Panel and weathered with Vallejo acrylics and Citadel washes. I've painted the wheel wells using the same method but I forgot to photograph them. 109E3_02 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr 109E3_04 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr 109E3_05 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr 109E3_06 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr Also, without photos, I have painted the wheel hubs, prop, radiators and gun barrels, all in a variety of Gunze and Alclad.

Deacon Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 A few extras! There's more there than I have ever put on all my kits put together! I have to say that the way you have made and painted the cockpit just screams quality. Deacon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Jase Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks. The main parts are fixed together and it's almost ready for some paint. Having a day off to watch The Pacific today so I'll update tomorrow with some photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Jase Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 (edited) Finally, some photo's. I couldn't get the lighting right so they're a little orange and don't show the pre/post-shading very well. The airframe and all the small parts have been primed in Alclad grey primer. I then pre-shaded the bottom with black and sprayed Gunze RLM65 over that. I then lightened the RLM65 with white and highlighted the centre of the panels before covering the whole lot in a very thin layer of RLM65 again. The photo's don't show the effect, but it looks good in natural light. 109E3_07 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr 109E3_08 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr 109E3_09 by Jazzy Jase, on Flickr Next I will be masking off the bottom and pre shading the top before spraying RLM70 all over. Edit: fixed the pictures. Edited December 4, 2010 by Jazzy Jase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Jase Posted December 16, 2010 Author Share Posted December 16, 2010 Quick update: The last few nights I've been busy painting the markings on. Should have finished, but made a stupid mistake and forgot to put the centre masks of the 0's in so I need to fix that by re-applying the masks and painting the camouflage back into the centre's. I also messed up painting the red tip of the spinner so I've stripped the paint ready to start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touvdal Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Good job, nice finish , but it lookes like it had a heavy landing , I think you must send the pilot back for refreshment , at the school. cheers Jes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
