Doug Rogers Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) Here's my 2nd GB entry, a 109. Here's the box shot of the kit that we all know and love; Sprue shots; Transfers, will be doing the Adolf Galland markings with the red 'Hellhounds'; Had already started the cockpit some time last year, so hope this is OK; Update soon!

AnonymousDFB1 Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Nice one Doug, no problem on the started components, it's a lot less than 25%
Doug Rogers Posted October 13, 2010 Author Posted October 13, 2010 Got a bit done over the last week, main assemblies together and assembled and painted the prop; Painted the fuselage and wings, but the wings aren't fixed to the fuselage yet until I've finished touching up the paintwork; Painted with Humbrol 65 for the light blue, Xtracrylix RLM02 and White Ensign RLM71. Hopefully onto applying the transfers on Monday.
maltadefender Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 I love the clean finish. Can't wait to see the end result!
Doug Rogers Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 Completed the transfers today, Jeez, there's a lot of stencil's on these things. Does look nice in these markings though; Attached the undercarriage and the exhausts after these photos. Looking to finish next week hopefully!
Doug Rogers Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks mate. I will dirty it up a little, but not too much! I'm guessing as it was Adolf Gallands aircraft, the groundcrew would have kept it in pretty clean condition.
Doug Rogers Posted October 27, 2010 Author Posted October 27, 2010 OK, finished this one off this morning. No nasty surprises really, went together really well. Used a mixture of Humbrol, Xtracrylix, White Ensign paints. Haven't done too much weathering, just a final spray wash of Matt varnish, with a drop of dark grey in it, bit of exhaust soot, and that about wraps her up; More pics in the gallery!
Doug Rogers Posted October 27, 2010 Author Posted October 27, 2010 Thanks folks! Only the second 109 I've got on my shelf, trouble is I've got a hankering for getting some more 109's now!
Doug Rogers Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Cheers Cliff! Love your Blenheim by the way, you've made that tricky build look easy.

Doug Rogers Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Thanks Justin, might get the Tamiya E-4 up at Telford. Or even an Airfix one, that new E1/4/7 Trop boxing looks quite nice.
Deacon Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Beautiful build Doug. I'd be well chuffed with that. Deacon
