Messerschmitt Bf 109 in British markings – Raul Hrubisko
Hi guys,
This time I would like to share with you the latest sub collection done by my father.
He decided to build a couple of captured Messerschmitt 109 in British markings. After some reaserch and a lot of help from Dave Flemming the final number for this subcollection result in 26 models.
Here are the final photos with some individual ones. I hope you like it
This is how the magic come throught.
Here are the individual photos.

Hi Craig. Many thanks.

How long did this group take your Father to build? It is an outstanding and interesting collection, as are ALL of the collections I've seen. I'm with Craig: where do you put them all?!
A hearty "Well done" to your Father!
Hi Jeff
It took him three months to build this group.
Many thanks for your kindly comments.
These 'flight lines' are always amazing!
Yes, totally agree with you. Thanks!
Fantastic collection and splendid piece of interesting history.
Many thanks. Yes, that is our idea about doing series like this one.
Wow that is quite a group. Very cool - I always had a thing for captured markings like these, but certainly can't imagine doing 26 of them! Great and inspiring!
Many thanks Paul.
What a great project - looks excellent!
Many thanks. It is one among others.
Cheers
That collection is very impressive. Nice job!
A wonderful collection Santiago!
Great to see.
