    Airfix 1/24th Messerschmitt Bf109G-5/6 (A17003)

    Part 3 - Fuselage, Wings & Test Fitting Now things start to come together pretty rapidly! This whole stage of the build involved assembling the wings, the gun pod that sits to the rear of the engine, the cowlings and giving her some legs to stand on. Nothing was particularly difficult here...

    Airfix 1/24th Messerschmitt Bf109G-5/6 (A17003)

    Thanks Jim. Yeah the out of the box cockpit is lovely, I did actually use the Quinta decals on the 24th spitfire (will post that when I get around to it) but that was more just to have a play with them over needing them.

    Welcome mate, nice to see you aboard! Mistakes is how we learn, just cover them up with a tarp/photo the model from the other side and tell no one 🤣 But like @Si Benson says, the art is fixing it.

    Tamiya M113A2 1/35th

    Lovely! Added the kit to my never ending "wishlist" 😄 what the wife does not know, won't hurt her. I also used tamiya masking tape for the tie downs, but have had mixed success...I'll have to give it another go.

    Airfix 1/24th Messerschmitt Bf109G-5/6 (A17003)

    No not a pro or anything. The name and logo I just came up with around 8 years ago now, bulldog is just a kind of British/Churchill reference haha. It was / used to be a business also. I used to make various 3D printed accessories for scale modelling such as Aircraft jigs, drawer units, paint...

    Airfix 1/24th Messerschmitt Bf109G-5/6 (A17003)

    I tend to build smaller, but could not pass on these 24th scale kits, I built the spitfire before this and it was a beautiful model. Well worth picking on up if you have to space to display it, and can get it for a good price.

    Airfix 1/24th Messerschmitt Bf109G-5/6 (A17003)

    Thank you very much, as far as I know ( I'm not an expert myself ) the pilots sat on their parachute, which is why the seat is shaped the way it is.

    Part 2 - Cockpit Build Just like the engine part of this construction, the Cockpit was very straight forward. There is lots of fantastic details here that can be picked out easy enough. I did toy with adding the fantastic Quinta Studios - 3D printed set here to upgrade the cockpit further...

    Thanks Jim, I have never seen the 1970's kit in person, but I can imagine how it was. Technology has moved along with injection molding for sure!

    Meng T-72B1

    Coming along nicely this build :) ... The last Meng kit I got was terrible and ended up in the bin! ... but they seem to have improved drastically. Looking forward to seeing further progress.
