This article has
been long time coming as I built this model a while back as many of you
recall. This is the excellent 1/32 Hasegawa kit that many have raved about
and I will not got further into that, except to say it's an excellent kit.
It's basically built out of box. I added a few things to the cockpit
out of the scrap box and aftermarket decals.
The model was
painted in the standard RLM 74/75 uppers and RLM 76 unders. The Blue
Reichs defense band Is RLM 24 and RLM 04 cowling and rudder. The
weathering was done with Black pastels and dark Brown watercolors to
highlight the panel lines.

Decals are the
excellent EagleEditions sheet # 39.
This model depicts a 109 flown by pilot Uffz Gunther
Sahl. He and aircraft were lost on April 9 1944.
Look forward to build many more 109's in the future.
Cheers and happy modeling
Andy G
