Balkans Theatre...1/48 Messerschmitt Bf109E-7, III./JG77
After a longer 109 pause, here´s my dad´s newest one.

Here is my Monogram He-111 in 1/48th scale - a venerable kit which can compete with more recent releases with a bit of care. I had to spend some time filling and sanding to get the clear parts aligned and sealed and there were a few other [...]
