  1. Another nice offering in this scale, Paulo. I think for me personally the panel lines are a little too pronounced, but that's a bugbear of mine and so otherwise shouldn't detract from the work.

  2. Well done regardless of the basis kit.

    P.k

  3. Nicely done! Good to see a 109 in a different scheme.

  4. Thanks all for the kind words

  5. Nicely done, and as mentioned above, enjoy the different scheme to a perennial favorite. I also agree with Rob about the heaviness of the panel lines, and it looks like you tamed them down on your Airfix Warhawk, so getting the handle on it! That's the way it goes with us - always experimenting and refining technique! I look forward to seeing more from you.

  6. You certainly make working in 72nd scale look easy...(I can't).

  7. Nice work Paulo! Great Colours and I like the scratch built extras like the RDF aerial etc. - the Airfix kit can be a little basic - but these extra touches set it off really well.

  8. Maybe it's a little too "stripey" but very neat work nonetheless, makes me want to try 1/72 again (after a break of 55 years!).

  9. Hi George

    I agree with you about the stripes, lesson learned. Check my P40E in Brazilian Air Force scheme, that one I've done just after this Me109.
    Cheers mate

  10. One of the best builds i have seen from this kit, excellent paint job, well done !

  11. Lovely work Paulo, I must build one of these for my Finnish Air Force collection one day.
