1/72 Fine Molds Bf-109F-2
I'm in as well! This is the Fine Molds Bf-109F-2 in the colours of 206-victory ace Hans Philipp from JG 54. A very nice kit that builds easily! Decals are from the old Aeromaster "Luftwaffe Top Guns"-sheet of 1990s vintage. Paint [...]
1/48th Tamiya Bf-109E-4, Making a Sheep Rancher Angry
I have posted this elsewhere previously but in the spirit of 109 madness occuring on this site I thought I would post here. This is again the wonderful and enjoyable Tamiya kit. The markings are purely fictional, I just really liked the [...]
Attack of the 109s Pt. 8: the last 109, the Buchon – conversion for Hasegawa 1/32 kit
This is the Greymatter Figures conversion for the Hasegawa Bf-109G-4 kit, to create the HA-1112-M1L, the Spanish 109 with Merlin engine. This is an easy conversion, changing the nose and providing wing fences, 20mm wing cannon and [...]
Attack of the 109s Pt. 7: The Avia S-199 1/32 conversion of Hasegawa kit
The Czechs called it "Melec" (the mule), the Israelis called it the "Shakeen," (knife). It was nearly the last of the line.
As bad a fighter as it might have been, its arrival in Israel changed history. Here's an [...]

Attack of the 109s, Pt. 5: 1/32 Hasegawa Bf-109G-12
Here's the only kit of the 1/32 Bf-109G-12. Back in 2006, my good friend the late Dave Thompson, retired President of the Erie, PA Hell's Angels, all around nice guy, and lifelong modeler (you should have seen his scratchbuilt 1/32 Ju-87C [...]
Tamiya 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3
Having admired some hundreds of spectacular models here at iModeler, I feel compelled to provide some sort of evidence that Yours Truly also builds some models on his own -- well at least occasionally.
This is Tamiya’s Messerschmitt Bf [...]

A reprint from my editorial archives is this camouflage feature by Mr Rick Kent, originally posted at the pages of IPMS Stockholm - Ed.

Attack of the 109s, Pt. 4: Hannes Trautloft (Hasegawa 1/32 Bf-109F-2)
The Hasegawa limited-run Bf-109F-2 (released as Galland Bf-109F-2Z), with Eagle Cals decals to do Hannes Trautloft's Bf-109F-2. I love the many varied unofficial camouflage schemes applied to JG 54 109s and 190s.
To me, the Bf-109F is the [...]
