discussion Eduard 1:48 Bf 109F-4

Hi all,

With my Lightning almost finished, it's time to look towards the next project.

Eduard's lovely 109 has only just joined the stash, and I usually don't build things I buy straight away but I really want to give it a go.

Although there's a few tempting options in this boxing, I've wanted to do Marseille's aircraft for a while - it's the main reason I bought the kit!

Unfortunately some of the glazing parts are missing from my kit so I've contacted Eduard for replacements.

I hope you'll tag along for this build - hopefully I'll be able to get some photos of the completed Lightning at the weekend!

Done some work in the cockpit. I really don't like PE belts - they're just too flat - so I've made my own. Not super-detailed but a bit more 3D. All the chipping was done with a silver pencil.

I do like the colour scheme you have chosen for this one. Looking forward to seeing some more.

Thanks for the comment - I've actually made zero progress with this. I keep meaning to but get distracted!
