Lud13 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Hello Great looking Emil, I remember seeing artwork of this plane on a back of Squadron Signal Bf109 E book. Dejan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeroenpeters Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Hi Nick, You've made it! Took some time, but it shows the part! Love the paintjob. What's next? Cheers, Jeroen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Jeroen he he - i feel like i ran a marathon! i think it will be armour for me next: i want to do a blog on Military Modelling as the guys on there are really nice and friendly (kind of like a tracked-LSP!), but it is suuuuuch a ball-ache to upload pictures on there as far as i can see, i think i will give it a miss. the next plane i do could well be a 190 D-9 stationed in Czech late in the war...i have all the reference material, but i need things like wheel wells and a load of Eagle Editions stuff which costs, and i just don't have the cash at the moment i also want a break from mottle camo, as i am having problems with lifecolor acrylics and / or my airbrush! cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ray Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Nice Emil!!! I am definitely going to have to go through the build log on this one, as I have one of those in the stash and haven't seen too many built yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmayhew Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hi Ray, My build log is a bit long-winded at times, but i did go through things step by step, so if you want to see the do's and don't's of building this kit (God knows i managed quite a few of the don't's!) then hopefully it will be of use. Certainly i made things a bit trickier for myself than i needed to sometimes, and occasions i just plain goofed, but i think i showed some of the pitfalls to look out for. Anyway, glad you like it. Will have to be the E-7 trop for me next - that JG27 logo and early desert camo is just the best in my book. Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
