Hello, finnished one of my 1/72 eduard 109 this year with this F
Some criticisms: should have used a canopy mask; paint the winter camo after applying decals, and leave noticeable margins between markings and white paint, and alternatively getting white paint on the markings in places. That makes a scruffy paint job look more realistic; add more wear, and chipping of the white paint in areas where the pilot would be, and where maintenance would take place; did you forget to include the MG barrels?; the antennae shouldn’t be twisted around it’s suspension cable like that. Just let it lie in contact with it’s suspension cable, and add a dot of super-glue to hold it in place and trim off any extra antennae line flush.
it’s the kind of camo one need to apply the decals after the scheme tho
I did took some inspiration from planes that didn’t seemed to have much weathering since the only picture I managed to find is of its tail , the mg are here but not too visible on this one and I tried my ebs twith the antenna wire but the second one sometimes glued where it shouldn’t
In the Me-109 the cowl MG,s were offset due to the placement of their ammo bins. One barrel was just barely visible in it’s aperture, while the other stuck out several inches further.
Another tip - the canopy was hinged so it opened from left to right. The pilot could only enter from the left side, so a lot of chipping and wear marks occurred on the cockpit edge left side.
I might try on my 1/48 winter scheme F2 (also eduard tho from the royal class with the F4), tho some winter schemes weren’t that dirty
I had to base myself on those kind of pictures since I haven’t found one showing the whole plane I did
