Just started this one yesterday. Surprisingly, it is my first 109 in this scale. The dials and cockpit is fairly detailed but I would had liked to buy an eduard PE set, but didn't after all. I recently started using Tamiya extra thin cement. It is simply brilliant and works really well. I fully recommend it to every modeller. Sorry for the absence of photos, I will post them soon

Look forward to seeing the progress photos John. Agree with your comment regarding Tamiya Extra Thin Cement, I use it all the time.

Nice. I think the Fs and early Gs (before the G-6 with the bulges to accommodate the spent belt chutes for the heavier MG 131 machine guns) were the best looking of all Bf 109s.

Cheers

Here is more progress.... I added some seatbelts to the 109 from the eduard luftwaffe seatbelt set. Although the older PE set, it is still great. I picked this one up at the model expo at australia. The kit is a sound kit which could benefit from more surface detail. On a more positive note, the fit in the wings is really great. The wings, once assembled clips together and the fuselage to wing join requires no filler. Some flash featured which was cut off. A pity Hasegawa hasn't upgraded these moulds yet, as this kit is nearly there in terms of our thirst for detail.
