Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-10

Meng's 1/48 scale F-35A Lightning II is available online from Squadron for USD$59.99

At the same time as I was building the new Eduard 1/48 scale Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-10, I was also building the 40-year-old Revell kit.

The Revell kit has had a bit of extra work including an old Hawkeye cockpit and a spare tall tail wheel from an Eduard Bf 109 G-4 kit. All those extra Eduard parts really do come in handy!

The DF loop is a small staple from a Tamiya plastic bag bent to shape. The FuG 25 antenna is a length of copper rod and the pitot tube is cut from an industrial light filment. EZ Line was used for the antenna wire.

The colourful paint job is mainly Gunze-Sangyo acrylics and Mr Color lacquer paints.

Decals are from Stormo.

I am writing this one up in detail for Issue 93 of Military Illustrated Modeller magazine.
