Bf 109G-6, 2./JG 52, "Black 5" (1/32 Hasegawa)

Been many moons since anything rolled off the assembly line of the "Luftwaffe Modeling Center of Mediocrity" but may I humbly present my latest creation.  After a long bout of lack of mojo I wanted something that went together with no fuss and muss and the Hasegawa kit fits the bill to a tee, superbly engineered and a joy to put together.  This was originally supposed to be a Rumanian aircraft but decal difficulties and even more difficulties steered this one into the winter white-wash zone.  My first winter camo scheme and pretty happy with the results.

Beautiful as always Mike!  Tried doing that exact same aircraft a few years back, didn't work out and ended up being repainted as white 12.

 

Always a pleasure seeing your work my friend.

 

Hey Frank!  Good to see you around, Buddy!  Thanks for the kind words, especially from a modeler of your caliber!  :punk:

Mike, your recreation of a white winter scheme is stunning! How did you do it?

Thanks, Jens!  The white wash was applied using Mr. Color White thinned down about 60/40 thinner to paint ratio.  This was applied over the standard 74/75/76 finish.  I had the needle almost all the way closed and built up the paint very slowly and inconsistently to simulate a worn finish.  After the paint was applied I hit some if the areas with a 3600 grit sanding square to simulate wear/scuffing of the paint.
