delta7 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 99% complete just the aerial wire and cockpit canopy wire to do - might do some light weathering later on 21st centuary toys kit , eduard etch for pit and seatbelts and eagle cal decals nice kit - only real bugbear were that machinegun bulges were poor so I didnt fit them and the airleon balance were not included in the kit and are a distinctive feature on 109s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattler Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Nice, mate! I have a 1/32 K-4 Hartmann just itching to get built..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted May 3, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Great build! Here's a thought: put some extra object in the pics, so one can really see its size... (I've ordered a 1/32 110 night fighter... dunno when I'll get around to build it... 1/24 Mossie is still in its box, as are several other 1/32 sets...Thinkin' of getting me a 1/32 Swordfish...)

delta7 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 @rattler - definatly look at the eduard etch - I used this one http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/ED32075 and the coloured seat belts and it really improved the pit . I used eaglecal decals and have spares if you need any let me know and Ill post them to you @ fooltrottle , it isnt that big , 11" long with a foot wing span, my 1/48 phantom is about the same length .

GreyKnight Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Sweet indeed! I really like the weathering on the tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold_Gambler Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Nice Me-109, Delta7. I've got a 1/24 Spit (the MPC kit, the moulds were bought by Airfix which is still producing it) which was a royal flashy pain in the keister to clean up prior to building... it's about 80% done, but I keep revisiting it (to sand and fill the fuselage join line post-painting) so it's taking me forever to get it done... frankly getting more than a little sick of it, LOL. I also have, in their boxes, the 1/24 Airfix 109E, and the Trumpeter 1/24 Hurricane I which both look very nice and I'm itching to get going on them, but the 1/24s take up so much space once their started that I'm holding off. I'm looking forward to having the three iconic BoB fighters built. I wish there was a 1/24 Bf-110 to complement them. Cheers, Angus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
