BoB GB Guidelines.

[Wayne Little]

My plan was to do Wick's 109 as well....?

 

[B-17engineer]

I'm doing Wick's to.....Just kidding.

 

[Crimea_River]

And how many Bader Hurricanes will there be?

Karl, the model I had lined up was 1/48 Tamiya's E-4. OOB decals are the double chevron but there are other schemes as well. I may yet change as there are other schemes I like.

yep thats the one i've got, but you do it as well if you wish.
that way i can copy all your best bits !!!!!!
would have done Baders Hurricane if i could of got decals for it (he's a hero of mine)

Thanks for the link to pictures of Wicks 109 Chris

 

[imalko]

Hm, a lot of Vic's crates in this GB as it seems... Anyone doing Galland's or Molders' Bf 109Es?

 

[Lucky13]

Have a few 1/48 '13's that I can do for this one....

Heinz Bar, I./JG51, Bf 109E-3, W. Nr. 3714, White 13....
?, III./JG54, Bf 109E-3, W. Nr. 3576, White 13.... (possibly)
?, II./JG26, Bf 109E-1, W. Nr. ?, Red 13....
?, 9./JG54, Bf 109E-4, W. Nr. ?, Yellow 13....
Helmut Tiedmann, II./JG3, W. Nr. ?, Black 13....

And a Spitfire Mk.I from No. 74 Squadron me think....

These are the ones that I've got the decals for.....

You also have....

Lt. Walter Blume 7./JG 26 Weiss 13 POW on 18/8/40
Oblt. Gustav 'Mickey' Sprick 8./JG 26 Bf 109E-3 Schwarz 13
Oblt. Erwin Daig 5./JG 27 Bf 109E-1 Schwarz 13
Fw. Walter Scholz 5./JG 53 Bf 109E-4 W.Nr. 1325 Gelb 13 POW 30/9/40
Gefr. Karl Raisinger 3./JG 77 Bf 109E-3 Rot 13 POW 25/10/40

Cheers Chris! Any idea what they look like?

Edit: Still looking for a '13' from the 9th Staffeln who adopted a red griffin, in German a "Hollenhund" or hellhound.....

I'm doing Heinz Schnabel's 'White 6', Bf109E4 of JG3, and Waldemar Wubke's 'Yellow 11', Bf109E3, of JG54, both in 1/32nd scale. I'd like to replace my 1/32nd scale Hurricane (converted old Revell) with one probably from a Polish or Czech squadron, but the new PCM kit of the later Mk1, which is due soon, is £58+ (£50 ish at Relish Models), a tad high for me at the moment. Might do a 1/48th scale Hurricane instead, and make it part of the 56 Sqn line-up. Or a 1/48th Do17Z...or a.......think we should extend this GB to six months !!

 

[B-17engineer]

Darn I remember I have a 1.48 Do-17....

 

[Lucky13]

...then we have of course, the Bf 109E-4 — "White 13″, of Oblt. Walter Oesau, 3./JG51, August 1940.

 

[jamierd]

i think i might be adding a 110 to this GB just going to get the eagle out of the way first it takes up too much room

 

[lesofprimus]

This may be the motivational spark I need to get my guts cookin again... Ive got that special 109 job in the wings....

 

[Airframes]

And about time too Dan ! Get yer *rse in gear and roll man !

 

[Lucky13]

Yeeaaah! Or Terry will go all Hippocroccofrog on your *rse!

 

[Airframes]

Yeeuukkkk !!

 

[Lucky13]

No '13'.....

 

[Wayne Little]

...then we have of course, the Bf 109E-4 — "White 13″, of Oblt. Walter Oesau, 3./JG51, August 1940.

Can do that too in 1/48 or 1/32!

 

[Lucky13]

*Grinding teeth*

Have to say that it's very tempting to do a I./ZG76 Bf 110D, since they only took part in the BoB once, after being badly battered. Or, a Bf 109E from II./JG77, if I can find a '13'.....

 

[Lucky13]

Hmmmm......the '87B-1 and '110C looks interesting on this sheet as well. D*mmit!
