1/48 Tamiya 109E Trop

[T. van Vuuren]

Here is the pix of my 109.I have put it asside for a while till I get the new rear canopy that I lost!

It will go on a North Africa diorama soon.

I did the mottling freehan as I was to lazy to cut out a mask for it LOL! Model master paint thinned down allot seems to have worked OK.

Just light staining and very little weathering was aplied as I understand the planes faded faster than anything in NA

Very nice Theuns. I see you've got the first 4 of Schroer's eventual 114 victories marked on the rudder. You'd be surprised how often they get left off.

Cheers

Looks really good. Nice detail with the seatbelts.

Thanx. I did the buckles from bent streched sprue, but they are way to thick. On newer models I did them fro the thin wire used by the florists, it works really nicely and looks more scale.
