Done : Bf109K-4 "Yellow 13", 15./JG 53 Gruppe Build...

[Lucky13]

Well, just being bored and NOT feeling too good , I decided to see what I could do to my Bf 109K-4 "Yellow 13" from 15./JG53. Washed it and did some painting. See if I can find the strenght to do some more later today, since I'm not going to work tonight.

 

[Wurger]

Good beginning Jan. Keep working.

 

[Catch22]

Looking good Jan! Get better too!

 

[Heinz]

Hope you're feeling better mate, get a few down ya

Looking good mate! Can't wait for more

 

[rochie]

get well soon jan, great start

 

[javlin]

Looking good Jan with all these 109's we'll be able start our own Air Force

 

[Lucky13]

Cheers chaps, appreciated! (sneez...cough!)

Done a tad more between all the bl**dy coughing and sneezing...

Can tell that it's been a while since I built a Hasegawa kit, since I was surprised that they haven't supplied belts as decals....

 

[Wurger]

Looking good Jan . How are you going to put the cockpit interior into the fuselage?

 

[Lucky13]

The cockpit slides in from underneath Wojtek....then you glue the wings to the airframe.

What I've managed to do today/tonight.....

Had to shape the wheelwells, not that difficult since Hasegawa had done half
the job for you...

Leave at this for noo, and I'll continue tomorrow...I hope.

 

[Wurger]

Nice.Are you going to have slats opened?

 

[Lucky13]

You know Wojtek, I just noticed that earlier and I thought....cool! 8) Might just do that...questions is though, what colour is it underneath?

 

[Wayne Little]

Being late war it could be anything...starting with RLM02 to natural metal?

...to keep it simple go with 02 otherwise you will just go crazy trying to figure it out......have one pic of "Yellow 13".

 

[Wurger]

Wayne is righ.But I believe the RLM02 is the correct one.

 

[lesofprimus]

Agreed RLM02 is the money shot Jan....

Have u decided on whether to put ur flaps down???

 

[Erich]

Lucky do you own one of the JaPo volumes on the 109K ?, the EE cal sheet is decent enough but you may require other views of the JG 53 K's

 

[Airframes]

Looking good old bean! Hope you feedl better soon - think I've got the bug now too, probably came across the Pond from Chris (Njaco)!

 

[Erich]

keep that crap to yourselves guys ............ go build a model quick !

 

[Wurger]

Erich , building models is not a bakery.

 

[Erich]

thank God ! in fact that is making me hungry right now ........

 

[Wurger]

Bon appetit !!!
