You could almost convince me to go 1:32 scale. Now if you could convince MY WIFE, I'll be set. Beautiful work there. Very realistic weathering, not too overdone. Looking forward to more pictures.

Thanks very much Roguepink!

This model is weathered a little more than I useally do on my models, the full size a/c I am modelling was one of many Bf 109s that survived the war and flew to Neubiberg and surrendered to American forces there. Since this a/c was flown by II./JG 52 and fought on the eastern front I figured it would have seen heavy use and been a little on the dirty side. :)

Amazing weathering... not too overstated -- just right

Thank you Mike!
Weathering these models can be a little tricky to do, it is very easy to go too far and ruin the model.

Thanks very much roadrner!

I only have to do a few more things to this model and its done.
I take all my pictures outside to take advantage of the natural light but this entire week is supposed to be rainy weather so I might have to wait awhile to get pictures of the finished model.

You've inspired me to get back to my Tamiya Do335 high-altitude conversion. The fuselage is all done, with CMK's aftermarket cockpit and wheel bays. Now I have to install CMK's complete engine bay detail sets. Last night I was applying photoetched bolt heads to a Daimler Benz. :freak:

Weathering to be done later.

Wow! Photo-realistic work, there, Agent!

Incredible job! The camo paint job is perfectly subtle.

I also appreciate the fact that you're modeling a specific plane from a photograph--makes for a nice little trip back into time :thumbsup:

Your Do 335 looks fantastic!

I just finished gluing 25 tiny photoetched parts onto the resin rear engine block, and painted it. :freak:

Okay if this 1/32 stuff continues looking this good... the photos will soon start to be confused with actual Luftwaffe footage.

Tanks! A simple wash of black watercolor, followed by some bry-brush highlighting is all it takes.

That looks just brilliant, I am soon starting work on a typhoon, but I doubt that I can get it to look as realistic as that. Keep it up.

Thanks very much Liquidos!

The model is now finished I am waiting for a chance to get outside and take pics of it, not an easy task this time of year in Oregen.
