coolboxx Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Hi all, I am liking the new look of this great site well done all. I am cutting my teeth on Revell's great bf 109 g6, so having another go at her. Erich hartmann's 9/JG 52 believed to be his backup g6. Small red no. "2" inside yellow 1. Having seen the film where this aircraft came about, had to have a go. Using barracudas great little oil cooler,quick boost's gun bulges, joystick, turbo charger intake, Brassin landing gear, Eaglecals no 132. Tamiya acrylic mixes RLM 74, 75 and 76 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mikester Posted March 4, 2017 Members Share Posted March 4, 2017 Looking good so far! Good call on the Brassin landing gear, the one G-6 that I built using the kit parts collapsed after a couple of years on the shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolboxx Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Underwing weathering underway 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolboxx Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Update with camouflage pattern on, I have decided to stick with rlm 74, 75 and 76 in various shades after watching this film clip many times. I do believe it's a g6 with tall tail. Here is the link to find the film, if anyone is interested. http://falkeeins.blogspot.co.uk/?m=1 Adding decals, filters and weathering. As you may guess I am ahead on this build and hope to finish up by this weekend... I am putting the final finishing touches to her.......... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
