One-Oh-Four Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Are there decals on the market for Bf 109G's that were based / fought in France in the summer of 1944? I seem to only find Reichsverteidigung or Eastern Front. Thanks in advance! Cheers, Erik.
Members Mikester Posted July 10, 2014 Members Posted July 10, 2014 Erik, this is not a real common subject on decal sheets. Although almost all of the Jagdgruppen in the West were moved to France shortly after the invasion it doesn't seem to be a real popular modeling subject, probably because it was a rather short campaign for the Luftwaffe. There are pictures of G-6/G-14s in France though, maybe Google it and if you find something you like try to cobble together decals for it.
One-Oh-Four Posted July 10, 2014 Author Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks, Mike! I'll have a look around...
Cpt_Farrel Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 There's this: http://theprofilepaintshop.blogspot.se/2013/09/jg3-bf109g-6s-in-normandie-with-green.html?m=0 It could easily be built using the decals for an earlier 9./JG3 G-6 marked yellow 6, the famous one with the eyes painted on the gun bulges. I know Eagle Cals does the aircraft and I'm sure others do too. The yellow 6 on my blog is illustrated with the battery box on the rear bulkhead which is an error or oversight, I'll be fixing it when I get the time. /Anders
Members Mikester Posted July 25, 2014 Members Posted July 25, 2014 Erik, I think this G-6 might fit the bill: http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=51662
