I shouldn't get distracted from my Mustang build but I couldn't resist to start this one.... So, using the Hasegawa Bf 109 F2 kit as base to upgrade to the G2 version, it will be a "in flight" display so cockpit  will closed  with the pilot figure and not much of the details visible, this is the progress so far, cheers

Interesting link, thanks Antonio    ugqJhBO.gif

 

 Thanks gents for your words! cheers

 

wings are glued,  also I increased the dihedral angle  which is a bit flat on the Hasegawa 109s, with plasticard and sanding the wing inner reinforcement, cheers

Great work on the pilot figure, as you’ve modified him I’m assuming it’s not the Hasegawa supplied figure?

thanks Chris,  it is the pilot figure from the Hasegawa Stuka kit, only added the oxygen mask and back  life vest portion, cheers

Good work on the dihedral, Antonio!  The insert for the prop shaft looks to be off-center in the photo.  Will that throw off the placement of the spinner?

Thanks John,  you are totally right about it,  gotta fix that ;)

cheers
