World War One bf-109
« on: January 15, 2015, 01:26:59 PM »
Here's a couple of pics of my 109 that I am just now getting finished. Didn't do a whole lot to it but slap the plastic together and paint n decal it to be in jasta 15. No decals on the bottom cause I need what I have left for another build.  Mike.

Different take on bf-109.  Oddly it works.  Good eye for how to finish :)

Great work!! I found a number of WWII fighter profiles done in WWI colour schemes like you've produced. I was very tempted to do the Fw 190A scheme I have ......... now how to mix a believable purple :D

Thanks for having discovered the forefather of the 1930s' Bf-109. You are right: it could not come from nowhere. Fortunately, you provide us with the (solid) explanation... ;)

Great assembly job on the paper Albatross!! 8) 8)
Whose paper model was the Albatross, and is it 1/33 scale?
