TeWika Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Well, she looks good to me! Great scheme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beychevelle Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not finished, but on my way! Only the antennas, the wires and the last few stencils to go. I'll do the weathering with pigments after the varnish. Today I ordered a whole bunch of Barracuda 109 props and beules for my future builds. I can live with the Revell exhaust and undercarriage. The Brassin I used now is neat, but I'll survive without them. The Revell prop and spinner I really dont like. Note to self....learn to keep my work space more tidy.

Beychevelle Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Finished!Enjoyed building this. It's not the high standard most of you can produce, but I'm still pleased with the result.I learned a lot and hopefully my next build will be better.Most pleased with what the preshading did...specially the underside.I'm not overly happy with the darker shades on the top side. Even though the Kagero book showed a rather dark camo, I maybe overdid it.Too dark to my liking anyway.Imho the Revell kit is very nice. Only dislike the prop and spinner. Barracuda props for future 109s for sure.I don't regret using the Eduard Brassin exhaust and undercarriage, both very nice, but I can do without them.Maybe better to say...I'm not worth them. I build to make a kit look "pleasing to the eye" not to show large photos of small details.My result is simply not good enough for that and it's not something I strife to reach. I admire what you guys do though. Thanks to Mike and Matt....their kit review helped me a lot. Thanks to others for their nice comments and tips. Now I go tidy my desk...it's a shameful mess Thinking about what to build next. It's tempting to start another 109, but I'm leaning towards the Brewster Buffalo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_ Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Looks great. I like the contrast between the murky fuselage and the quite high vis wing camo and the RVD bands. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wadoux Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Hello, As you seem to be an expert in Bf 109 ; what are the diference beetween Late G-14 and G-10 A/C ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beychevelle Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Oh my...I'm no expert Mike and Matt are experts I think.(I followed their advise) Most noticeable difference...the G-10 has no beules. Not all G-10s had the long wing bulges and not all had the tall tail wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadoux Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Sorry, my friend ! I speak too rapidly ! In fact my question was : What difference beetwen late G-6 and late G-14 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beychevelle Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 The G-14 is a late G-6, but equipped with the MW50 power boost, an Erla canopy and a late rudder style. Maybe there more small differences. The Mike and Matt kit review gives a good explanation: http://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/1238-132-messerschmitt-bf-109g-6-early-and-late/ Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
