Here is my recently completed 1/32 Hasegawa Bf109G-14 build of Erich Hartmann's Double Chevron.
The aftermarket items used in this build include:
1. MDC Bf109G-14 Cockpit Set
2. MDC Bf109G Tail Wheel
3. RB Productions Bf109G-6 Wheel Wells
4. Resin exhausts (maker unknown)
5. Strategic Ordnance Works Bf109G Landing Gear
6. Barracuda Bf109G-6 Spinner and Prop
7. Barracuda Bf109G-6 Oil Cooler Fairing
Major markings were painted with custom cut masks from my Silhouette Portrait cutter. AK Real Color paints were used to establish the underlying RLM74/75/76 camo. Tamiya and Mr Hobby Aqueous paints were also used.

She's a beauty, John! I really enjoyed watching the progress of the build.

Another beautiful build for the display shelf John! I learned a lot from following this build just like I do from all of your work.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

What's a guy say to THAT??? Just an unbelievable turn out. Paint and weathering is out of sight as is the details. That right there is a build to be proud of is all I've gotta say. WOW!!

Wow! Put that against a scenic background and shoot it in a sepia or black and white setting on your camera and there would be no telling the difference between your model and a real period historical photo! What a stupendous job! Words fail me....

Another beauty of a build! I can only imagine how your display shelves look...

Thanks Clint! I actually learn alot during my builds too. Wasn't sure how to approach the segmented winter camo and jumped into it without having a clear idea in my head. The chipping fluid issues forced me to change my approach and it just worked itself out in the end.Floki wrote:Another beautiful build for the display shelf John!

Thank you Joe! I still have a lot to learn when it comes to paint and weathering but the learning process has been very enjoyable. It seems like each build presents a set of challenges and this one wasn't free of difficulties.mustang1989 wrote:What's a guy say to THAT??? Just an unbelievable turn out.

Thanks Duke! There is a lot of interpretation that goes into these WW2 builds. I think that is one of the reasons why I enjoy them versus a modern jet. I mean, you know exactly what a modern jet looks like because of the high quality photos and videos that are available. But with these older warbirds, the end of the build process usually gives me a "whoa... is that what it may have looked like?" feeling. Like a box of chocolates...Duke Maddog wrote:Wow!

Thanks Carlos! 100% of my large scale builds are destined for overseas. Right now I have a backlog of deliveries to make but normally my display shelves are devoid of the 1/32 models. I still have a collection of my older 1/48 builds though.Stikpusher wrote:Another beauty of a build! I can only imagine how your display shelves look...
