Title: Another new aircraft model, another Messerschmitt!
Post by: matrixone on June 06, 2016, 11:55:01 AM
This 1/32 scale Hasegawa Bf 109K-4 was built SFTB, I used EagleCals for the markings of ''white 10''. The weathering looks to be over the top but actually this 109 had seen quite a bit of action and was filthy at the time it was photographed so I went with what I had seen in the photographs.

No not a Mistel, just a 1/72 scale model of the same aircraft I made a few years ago.

Thanks guys! :drink:

I try to keep the weathering close to scale size on my models and more often than not what weathering I do is not visible in the pictures of the finished models so I like to build models of heavily weathered machines like this K-4 ''white 10'', there is no way to NOT see the weathering effort on this model. ;)
