Thomas Lund Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) So finally I pulled myself together and finished the last bits of this model. Eduard 1/32 Bf109E-1 with AlleyCat D conversion to do the JG102 plane of Hannes Gentzen - the first ace of WWII I had a little going back and forth with the camo with regards to the contrast between the two greens (see wip thread). Too much to start with, but I find it to be too little in the end. Pretty hard to see that it's two tone, but then again so was the real thing The kit is good, not fantastic, but ok. The conversion could not be better. AlleyCat is heartily recommended. Decals is a mix of kit, conversion and my spares box Hope you like it. I had fun :-) Edited June 6, 2019 by Thomas Lund 109, Zero77, Mebo and 5 others 8
Out2gtcha Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 VERY nice Thomas!! I take it that last pic just looks like the canopy is unpainted? Looks like the inside of the canopy is NMF or is that just a trick of light?
Thomas Lund Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 I can see what you mean - it must be a reflection of the light - it is RLM66 actually
Mal_Belford Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Thomas. Odd variant and not seen to often being finnished, i like very much, as you used that converstion set, yove done a great job, i like it and the weathering on this one /Mal

LSP_Kevin Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Naturally Kevin. Do you want the pics of the original too ? Do you mean photos of the real aircraft? I tend not to publish those in articles for copyright reasons. Kev Thomas Lund 1
Mikester Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Really nice! I have the SCW "D" conversion set that I need to do one of these days.
