Hasegawa 1/48 Bf 109G-6

April 9, 2024 · in Aviation · · 26 · 303

I used 's Messerschmitt Bf 109G-6 depicting the mount of Oblt. Alfred Grislawski as a platform of an engine. The advantage of resin casts are the fine details that enhance the complex arrays of cables and pipes surrounding the engine. Yet, I have not found a resin set that fits perfectly with the host plastic mold.

    The number of high quality models you put out amazes me! Makes me wonder where you display them all?

  5. Great build and finishing.

  6. Looks amazing Rafi 😀
    Making models must be your career! I can't believe how many models you're doing lately. Keep up the great work 🙂

  7. Superb job as always, Rafi!
    Painting and weathering second to none!

  8. A real beauty, Rafi @blackmopane
    Very nice to see the engine being shown as well, quite some details.

  9. You'll never find good fit if you attempt to put anything but a seat from Aires in a kit. I say that from experience.

    That said, you triumphed over resin with this one.

  10. Excellent detail work, Rafi.

  11. Another fine build, and a great job accentuating all the fine detail!
