LSP_K2 Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 This is pretty gratifying. Sprue and several other favorites, seem to be out of the Quickboost Revi gun sights. I just discovered these here, in a box with mixed AM and kit parts. Not a huge deal, but it certainly pleases me. There was also an additional Eagle Parts '109 supercharger intake, and that's great, as I have a half dozen or so '109s to eventually get to.

LSP_K2 Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 The Eagle Cals sheet for this bird arrived today. Though the tentative scheme I'd chosen was yellow 15, yellow 11 will have to do (not that anyone will know the difference).

Troy Molitor Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Go Kev go. Likely my favorite kit ever produced. When you get around to painting your Revi 16B. I see the majority of us (including myself) always paint the gunsight in RLM 66. The majority of the late war sights were actually left in a natural metal state and not painted at all. Picture provided for reference only. Enjoying your build. John1, LSP_K2, Sparzanza and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 Interesting. Is that yours? Troy Molitor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 I decided to separate the AM from the misc. kit parts last night. I have AM in a whole bunch of locations, too many, really, and one goal this year, is to consolidate them, then do an inventory, as I’m sure there’s stuff for kits I no longer have or will not likely reacquire. Anyway, mixed within that same box, was this bit of ‘109 P.E. Doubtful I’ll use most of it, but at least I do have it. D.B.

Rowdy Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I really like the cockpit frame work in PE! I love the G14 the most of the whole Bf109 lineage. Looking forward to your paintjob! Troy Molitor, LSP_K2 and Gazzas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I have to agree with Rowdy. The G-14As and the G-10's are seriously interesting subjects to study. The PE frame I understand is hard to assemble but well worth the extra efforts in the end. So looking forward to this one Kev.

LSP_K2 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Some random stuff arrived today from Scale Hobbyist (love their prices), including some RLM 70. I suspect I'll be using Montex masks instead of the decals, as I really don't like the yellow that was used on them. Paul in Napier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunnus Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I couldn't get the photoetch canopy frame to work out for me, unfortunately! I hope you are more successful... it looks really nice if you can pull it off! If the yellow "15" didn't have a thin black border, I would volunteer making up a mask for you.

Well, actually I probably won't be using most of it, other than the canopy hinges, and perhaps a couple of other small parts. As to the masks, I chased down several Montex sets that have outlined numbers, so no sweat there, though I do appreciate the offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 I've completely run out of time on a big 1:16 Jagdtiger that I wanted to finish by September, so I've switched gears yet once again, and now intend to wrap this one up for the show instead, possibly taking it to Omaha in 2022 also (assuming I'm happy with it).
