Phil's Eduard 1:48 me109 E-1

[PhilJ]

Hi guys,
So after much time here is my finished Eduard 1:48 me109 E-1.
It's a great kit out of the box (being a profipack) but I added some scratch parts mostly wiring around the engine and landing gears. Colours are Gunze and Vallejo, canopy masked with bare metal.
Sorry about the picture quality as I didnt have my DSLR with me so I used my phone, the last picture is the result of why I should have waited and the damage a Samsung smartphone can inflict on a WWII plane.

All comments welcome as usual and enjoy.

Thanks

Phil

Looks (looked?) superb, Phil. The engine detailing is fantastic. Hope you're able to fix the damage OK.

Looks brilliant, really love the battered and scarred look!

Great looking finish Phil. A shame about the phone collision, but looks to be minimal damage.
