You did a great job on the seatbelts!Even as molded on, they look great! However, I still would have replaced them.

Erste Sahne! Dein Instrumentenbrett, die inneren Seitenwände, einfach alles harmonisch und sehr gefällig.

Great work Stefan. I really like the subtle and precise paintwork in the cockpit!

Ok, du bekommst die Auspuffrohre in den Rumpf. Aber wie drehst du die und bringst die dann in die entsprechende Öffnung?
25 August 2013, 06:48

Hi Thomas, ich will sie gleich in der richtigen Lage reingestecken und dann mit einer Pinzette greifen und positioniern. Ich habe es mal ausprobiert bevor ich den Rumpf zusammengeklebt habe. Ob es dann so klappt wie ich es mir vorstelle, weis ich noch nicht 🙂

Hi Stefan, very impressive so far. Excellent weathering at the interior parts, very well done mate!

Lovely details in the cockpit Stefan. I want however to point out that the triangular box on the pilot rear hatch is a feature found on the G-10 only. It covered an accumulator (extra battery power).

Hi Aghis I agree, the triangular box is a feature of the G-10 and later of the G-14. The G-14 was the attempt to create a new standard of the different Bf 109 G-6, because the 109 was build in several factories. And so you can find this box on some late 109 G-6 too. I look fore some informations of this plane and find this: asisbiz.com/il2/Bf-1..5-%28%28+o-Dorr.html

@Stefan: The accumulator cover can be seen also in G-14/AS machines, you are correct (G-6/AS with methanol injection added). Because of the difficulty to distinguish between a G-6/AS and a G-14/AS the confusion can occur. This is what I like about the 109: Research is required😉

Looking good, and nice work on the IP. What colors are you using? And how is the fit so far? I hope you can get the exhausts in, and don't end up with an airplane shaped rattler 😉

Hi Roland, i use different acrylic colors and washings vallejo. The fit is sofar good. On the pics you can see there i use some putty. I test the assembly of the exhausts 🙂

Excellent start! Is that 1:32?
Just a question: where did You buy that punch and die set? I try to find one foryears - finally I made my own but still far from perfect.
