Academy 1:48 Bf 109E-3 “Heinz Bär” boxing

September 30, 2018 · in Aviation · · 10 · 2.2K

This was the first kit I built after a 4 year hiatus in model building. Its the reboxing of the kit, which at the same time looks very similar to the Hasegawa version.

The only trouble I had with this kit was that the tailplane´s struts were too long, so they had to be trimmed to get a good fit.

  2. You have a lot of love for ‘Academy’, Francisco, and I can see why. I really like your clean and smooth style - it’s very distinctive. Great work, keep them coming!

  3. you've done it again and again very nice model

  4. Another nice 109 Francisco!

  5. Magnificent Messerschmitt!

  6. Well done, Francisco! I really like the "E"arly versions of the Bf109 series. Most seem the like the fat-nosed versions better, but not I! The early nose seems sleeker and more streamlined. To me.

    Aren't choices wonderful?
