Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This is 1/32 Dragon Bf-109E3 with the markings of StabI./JG53 Wiesbaden-Erbenheim November 1939.( flown by Dr Erich Mix)

Kurt Tank's successor of the Focke wulf designed as a low altitude fighter interceptor. The kit was a late issue by Dragon after the Ta-152H kit and carries some common sprues. Similarly, it is highly detailed and the building experience [...]
