Borsos Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Hello all! oh really? A Bf-109? Woooow…. I know I know, this is nothing really very creative or exotic. And it’s Battle of Britain, too. But I like her anyway and this is actually my first Bf-109 I‘ve ever built. Finished some 2 years ago from eduard‘s Profi Pack and Andrea figures. best regards, Andreas Rockie Yarwood, fab, Kagemusha and 16 others 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Hi Andreas, you are clearly very skilled with an airbrush and some of the effects are either very subtle or show great detail, or bits of both, for example the exhaust stains however for me the panel line ‘quilted’ effect (preshading?) is the dominant thing I see on the model itself; for my personal taste it’s quite exaggerated and - in my opinion - doesn’t look that realistic i do like the figures and the whole scene makes me think if you shot this in black and white it would like quite evocative of original photographs Thank you for sharing and I hope you take my critique in the constructive way it was meant kind regards Nick Martinnfb, Borsos and Jeff T 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I must add I am a lousy photographer (always wanted to be a better one but not willing to invest the necessary time to learn it). Ido all my model shots with my iPhone camera. In reality these effects luckily are less visible. kind regards, Andreas Jeff T, Martinnfb and nmayhew 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Andreas, many of us like to see plenty of 109s (I just finished one). Nice work on yours, keep it up. Martinnfb and Borsos 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jboldt007 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 super awesome - the figures are top notch too! great ensemble.! Nothing like an "E". ok the G's are kind of ... you know... not as aesthetically pleasing. But, yeah we all know there are so many BF-109s but honestly - they never get old. everyone has to do a 109 (I'm 1/2 way there) at some point. it's a right of passage. And they are cool with so many livery options... Borsos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borsos Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 „everyone has to do a 109“ — I completely agree . Thanks for your kind words! Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpgsbody55 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Nice looking 109, and I like your display too. Just finished a 109G-4 myself, and I'm presently working on a 109E-3. Bring them on, I say. Cheers, Michael Borsos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
