Following! ...
PS I usually build the aircrafts that fought against this, that surrendered in Falconara.

Hi Roland and Moreno! Glad to have you on board!
True, Roland, apart from the bland cockpits, I'm actually amazed about how easy these kits build and how nice the panel lines are.
Moreno, I typically build more Allied or modern stuff, but am quite interested in the plethora of colors and markings that were around in the desperate end of World War II. This is part of a group build where our club bought a couple of these Easy Assembly Bf109s, so a 109 it is! 😉

Thanks Villiers! I need to hurry up now. The group build deadline is end of this month.

Great stuff Patrick.
Love seeing aircraft badged up outside of their usual markings. Captured or rebadged allies, it's all interesting. I did a Hobby Boss Mustang kit and have to agree that even though meant as beginners (probably) they are great for getting to the painting and are well detailed externally.

Great work so far Patrick! The BF-109 looks nice with the Croatian "balkenkreuz".

Hey Gary, welcome! I agree, I'd rather work on a 'weird' color scheme as it is that more 'exotic'. And yes, those easy assembly kits are great as an external paint canvas.
Thank you Erik! Even though the Croatian 'Balkenkreuz' is highly visible, the German one is only sloppily painted over: double combo then! 😉

Really a nice work! Well done 👍
For the last pic: maybe you can recover the marking painting with a fine brush

😄 Thank you for your concerns, Moreno. 🙂 But if you look at pictures 7 and 9 you'll see that the actual aircraft had damaged markings as well. That's what I tried to recreate. But it's harder to create damage than building something that's intact. On the other hand, it's quite easy to destroy something unwanted. 😉

Yes, I understand, I was suggesting to 'create the damage" painting with a fine brush around and on the unwanted destroyed part. 🙂
BTW You made me want to start another plane that was around in the desperate end of World War II 🙂

🫣 I gotcha Moreno. 👍🏼 I wasn't into German aircraft that much until I found out the plethora of colors and options and grafted together aircraft from that timeframe. After this one, I got another colorful one-o-nine planned. ☺️

Thanks Jennifer and Moreno! I'm surprised myself about what can be done with these simple kits.
