Thunnus Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share Posted January 14, 2018 That's it - I give up! Seriously amazing model - one of the best I've ever seen! Thank you Matt! Absolutely beautiful. The painting and weathering are TOP NOTCH. Thanks a lot! Outstanding job ! Thanks a lot John ! Matt You're welcome! I hope it was an entertaining and informative build! I haven't seen many using the AMUR Reaver cowling so I thought it'd be good to document that part of the build for anyone interested in the AMUR Reaver stuff... it's excellent. Another stunning build John, exceptional finish! Regards. Andy Thank you, Andy! Much appreciated! I'm no big fan of 109 but, OH my....... that's one serious you got there, perfect weathering and a Revell kit on top. WOW, Dan. Thanks! The Revell kit gets a lot of criticism but I happen to think it is a very good kit. I liked it enough to build it twice. Simply beautiful! Thank you Reuben!

Wackyracer Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 John, I found your build whilst researching 109's. I quickly found myself going over it time and time again for methods, thoughts and ideas. I've enjoyed every update you've done and even more the quality and approach to each stage. The careful and detailed approach to the whole build has been inspirational. I'm already re-evaluating my own methods with this new info. Congratulations on your build. Its truly amazing.

All the best Aaron Thanks Aaron! I always try to find on-line builds as a reference. I really value 1st person experiences with a kit, especially if there is aftermarket stuff used. So I've always approached my own builds with that in mind, hoping that the information I put up will be useful to someone. So thank you for those comments! Gorgeous, the AMUR Reaver cowl really changes the contour of the cowl for the better. Thanks Mike! I was really attracted to the AMUR Reaver cowling because of that potential. But I was very nervous about implementing it because I had never sawed off significant portions of the fuselage like that. So my approach was very careful and cautious and I think I my build posts reflect that. I'm happy that I was able to blend the cowling in with the rest of the fuselage. Beautifully done- Bravo. As has been said, that AMUR Cowl really changes the shape... Thank you! Now that the AMUR cowling is in place and I have been working with it so long, I don't really notice the differences. Sehr schön! Danke schon, Herr Heilig! lovely Thank you Mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunnus Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Beautiful work of art. Bravo! Cheers, Chuck Thanks so much Chuck! One aspect of this build that I forgot to mention was the valuable input that I received from LSP posters. It was quite an educational build for me and I really appreciate the amount of expertise on this board. So thank you to all of the LSP'ers that commented and helped me along the way, especially Martinnfb, Airfixer, XOPTC, Fencer-1, Tucohoward.... thank you! chuck540z3 and Fencer-1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Molitor Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 What a brilliant looking Erla, produced, Bf 109G-10 John. Simply a superb build here. When the pictures came out on Hartmann's machine, I just couldn't believe it. There was a lot of controversy surrounding the photos with some peep's indicating they were somehow fake photo right away when they were reveled. I recall reading about it on the Luftwaffe discussion group. Regardless of the naysayers, the two photos look real to me. I really enjoyed your in process build here. Just gorgeous all the way around. Thanks again for sharing this with all of us. What's up next? Regards, Troy Thunnus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
