Eduard 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf 109 F-2
This aircraft was piloted by Uffz. Peter Bremer of 2./JG54, Autumn 1941. The standard 74/75 upper camouflage was modified by an application of 70/02/79 over the original paint to improve its camouflage for Autumn. I did the same painting sequence to replicate on the model what was done to the original plane. The overspray on some of the national markings is intentional as photos of the aircraft show this to be so. This is a Royal Class version so it's pretty much OOB. I only added knobs to the sliding panels and a spring and wire to the canopy hood, brake lines to the landing gear legs and stretched sprue aerial wiring.
This is a great -109, especially with this well-done, unusual paint scheme. Awesome!
Good-lookin' build right there, Dale...nice job on that stretched sprue as well (that ain't always easy).
Very nice paint scheme
pretty...nice filter...bottom looks great
Nice work a usual Dale, didn’t know this plane decals came in the RC edition.
Thanks for bringing up the decals. I should have mentioned in the article that the decals are from Aeromaster .
Wow! One of the coolest JG 54 schemes evah!
Great work - I love your painting.
Beautifully done, dale. A pleasure to see.
Bravo!
Thanks everyone for the positive comments!
nice one - hadn't seen that scheme before, but I do love the JG54 stuff. great execution!
Photos and a color profile of this plane can be found in "Jagdwaffe" vol.3 section2 "Barbarossa The Invasion of Russia, June-Decemember 1941"
Well done Dale, your usual superb work I may add.
Dale, This is really nice, wonderful paint work and I love the scheme. I like it a lot !

Very visually striking Bf 109 Dale . Nicely applied weathering and the paint scheme really make this one jump out, good modeling … thank you for sharing this one.
A great-looking model! Love the scheme on this - may have to do one myself.
These JG 54 birds are my favorite Luftwaffe subjects. These and Late War planes.
Looks great my friend !
"liked"
Nice build.
Congratulations. Imho one of the best 109 camo schemes on the whole of the web. That’s is some astounding airbrush work! Just finished my first ever airbrush German BF 109 mottled style’ attempt. Took some effort, the hardest part being cleaning the brush and maintenance, wish there was a quicker way to do that bit! Will post up along with a hello to everyone. Your scheme is different, that’s why I like it.
@stuartbillange Thanks very much for you nice comments. This plane is featured in the Jagdwaffe book vol. 3 section 2 with photos and a color profile. Once i saw it I had to do it as like you different types of paint schemes motivate me.
