Dragon 1/32 Me109E4

Hi All,

Not posted for a little while, but here is one of my recent builds. This is a superb kit, rammed with detail, but goes together exceptionally well. Its up there with the Tamiya warbirds in the same scale, but costs half the price!

Its built pretty much out of the box, apart from Airscale console dial decals, and SAC metal undercarriage. I airbrushed using Mr Color acrylics, and kept weathering to a minimum, with some pre shading, an oil was, and then the "dotted oils" streaking process to finish off.

Hope you like it.

    A magnificent Emil. I like the weathering on this one. Well done!
