Dogfight Double – 1/144 Spitfire v Me109
A real gem of a kit from Beacon Models, and at around £21 for the two aircraft included it's an absolute bargain. There's a surprising level of interior detail for such a small kit, and although almost impossible to see once the fuselage [...]
1/48 Monogram Bf-109E
The title says Bf-109E, but when this kit was relleased, the box said “Me-109-E”. Built this one from a white box kit. Added a Hobbycraft cockpit and wheels. Decals from a Sky Models sheet for Hans Troitzsch of 6/JG77.

1/48 Otaki Bf-109G-6
Before Eduard, Hasegawa,Fujimi and Tamiya began releasing their great kits of the Bf-109G-6, there was Otaki. Recessed panel lines and rivets, enclosed wheel wells and, while not accurate, cockpits.
Here’s a couple I have built long [...]
Otaki 1/48th scale Bf-109G-6

Trumpeter 1/24 Messerschmitt Bf 109G-6
Trumpeter's big Bf 109G-6 is a mixed bag. It boasts with accurate outlines and a detailed surface texture. Yet, there are many inaccuracies concerning the position of hatches and panel lines. Nonetheless, these can be located and fixed [...]
