jeroenpeters Posted October 7, 2025 Author Posted October 7, 2025 The bracket that holds the kit engine is too wide for the after market FPW engine. I drew the part in 3D and narrowed the attachment points to 11,8mm. Landrotten Highlander, Shoggz, VintageEagle and 2 others 5
alaninaustria Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Jeroen, you never fail to amaze me with your talents and skills and artistic vision! I can’t wait to see her all come together!! Cheers Alan jeroenpeters 1
jeroenpeters Posted October 7, 2025 Author Posted October 7, 2025 The printed part and you can see how it lines up with the corresponding holes in the resin engine Mal_Belford, Greif8, Sasha As and 10 others 13
Greif8 Posted October 8, 2025 Posted October 8, 2025 Excellent 3D design and printing Jeroen, you have really mastered making parts. The replacement bracket looks outstanding. Ernest
jeroenpeters Posted October 8, 2025 Author Posted October 8, 2025 Dry fitted the engine to it’s lugs. Perfect fit. Wings ready for primer. LSP_Kevin, VintageEagle, SCRATCH BUILDER and 18 others 21
Greif8 Posted October 9, 2025 Posted October 9, 2025 Really beautiful 3D parts and outstanding work on your part Jeroen! Ernest jeroenpeters and alaninaustria 2
jeroenpeters Posted October 10, 2025 Author Posted October 10, 2025 Don’t want to bore with these shots but reprinted another set of parts with better settings. Mal_Belford, monthebiff, Furie and 8 others 11

That wing looks mighty fine Jeroen, looking good. Regards. Andy alaninaustria, jeroenpeters, patricksparks and 1 other 4
Pete Hamann Posted October 11, 2025 Posted October 11, 2025 Super cool! The wing looks great. jeroenpeters 1
alaninaustria Posted October 11, 2025 Posted October 11, 2025 Damn, that all looks amazing!! What talent mate!! Cheers Alan jeroenpeters 1
jeroenpeters Posted October 11, 2025 Author Posted October 11, 2025 A bit on the fence about the wheels. I’ve read the wheels came of a Bf109K. The wheel hubs of the kit match these, but the radius of the tyres is bigger than some resin wheels i have for the 109K. What to do… patricksparks, VintageEagle, AngryJazz_Models and 11 others 14
Greif8 Posted October 12, 2025 Posted October 12, 2025 That engine looks very nice in place. Regarding the wheel, why do I get the feeling that some 3D design and printing are about to, or are already occuring, at the Jeroen modelworks. 😀 Ernest
jeroenpeters Posted October 12, 2025 Author Posted October 12, 2025 Spent the evening cleaning up parts. Decided to swap the rudder pedals for 3d printed ones from Eduard. Sawed off the kit pedals from the bar and simply glued the new ones on. Mal_Belford, Rainer Hoffmann, Fanes and 7 others 10
Mal_Belford Posted October 12, 2025 Posted October 12, 2025 Yaih, and yes, those pedals look real crisp in detail...aswell as the rest of your ongoing project. Like it very much.
Greif8 Posted October 13, 2025 Posted October 13, 2025 It is always satisfying when a simple upgrade works beautifully which it does in this case, well done Jeroen! Ernest
