I have Tamiya's newer 1/48 Bf109 G-6 and was wondering if it would work for a Swiss aircraft?
I like to do somewhat different markings for my aircraft and I haven't done a Swiss marked plane yet.

Thanks, Wurger!
Google is, indeed, my friend! However, Google can make my eyes bleed after a bit. I don't have a clue about all of the details and differences in axis planes, nose bulges, wheel bulges on the wings, tall tail vs. short tail, etc. That's why I asked. I like to stay resaonably accurate, so I have to rely on people with more knowledge of the peculiarities that can crop up.
Excellent pics, by the way, and thanks for posting them! These will get me going in the right direction... now I am off to read up!
 
I see. Glad I could helped a little bit. If I may, I would suggest making one if these painted with the white nose and the white-red strips. The kind of camoufkage seems to be more attractive than the one with the Swiss crosses only. The J-711 with the Erla Haube looks very nice although the J-705 as well.
Here you are the next shot of the J-704. She seems to be repainted a little bit.
