The Bf109G-6 “Hartmann Edition” formed the basis for this model. Modifications included an MDC G-2/4 cockpit set, True Details wheels, decals cobbled together from Eagle Strike and Eagle Editions. Tape belts with p/e buckles from the MDC set.

Erik…… Unusual and beautiful scheme makes a cool looking 109. It never ceases to amaze me how many different schemes were applied to aircraft. Just when you think there can’t be a new one…………..

I don’t like Messerschmitts that much, but these are truly excellent models.
Bravo.
