Eduard Me 109G-14/AS Part 4. Painting and Weathering

Welcome to the Scale Modelling Cafe and the final part of the Eduard Me 1009G-14/AS project. In this episode I detail the painting and weathering of the model.

[@tonybourke8212]

Master class in painting and weathering, wonderful job Jamie 😎👌👍

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Tony

[@timandersen8916]

super inspiring :-) im starting to do the kroat "Black 4" now,
maybe i missed it but how come you sprayed the markings on and then painted them over again? and then painted them again..

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

I didn't repaint them, it's a layered approach. Light colours first then the dark bits after the camouflage. The fuselage cross colour IS the camouflage colour.

Hey Jamie - brilliant I’m hoping to try the mottling on a 1/72 ME 262, although the air is very dry here in Riyadh causing a lot of blockage , cheers Liam

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

That's why I use lacquer paints, it's not a problem here. The alternative is to run the shower on hot to increase the humidity!

[@ljscalemodels526]

@@thescalemodellingcafe cheers Jamie, I’m actually thinking of getting a humidifier to get some moisture in the air, thanks Liam

[@NobleWizard]

Beautiful work Jamie. Have you considered colourcoats paint for your german stuff?

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate. No, I don't like enamels, and I'm very happy with MRP?GSI Creos and don't see the need to change.

[@NobleWizard]

@@thescalemodellingcafe Cheers for the reply. Out of curiosity, why do you not like enamels? I've recently returned to the hobby and just trying to learn as much as possible to establish what works for me.

[@stewart4478]

amazing job Jamie, always enjoying seeing your builds come together and the techniques you use, just makes me feel my models are a bit sub par.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Stewart, it's just practice mate

[@warbirds-blog]

Excellent video and excellent model as well! May I ask you two questions?

[@warbirds-blog]

1. Do you use final coat of varnish after the all oil weathering process is complete?
2. What brand of colour do you use for the sponge chipping? (especially on the spinner the chipping looks fantastic)
THX

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate, of course you may;
1. No, I just wait for it to cure
2. Ammo of Mig Steel

@@thescalemodellingcafe go watch Cross of Iron Jamie, no aeroplanes sadly or political correctness but its a Sam Peckenpah movie... and youll get the weakness of the joke.

[@paulshrimplin4032]

Music louder than your voices, MRP great paint for mottling just did the FW 190 Dora Tamiya same colours as yours.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Yeah, the software was playing up, sorry about that Paul. That MRP is great isn't it!

[@Lurchin]

Nice one Jamie, very inspiring, going to have a go at some of these techniques in my next build.
Now, where's my stash? 😎

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate, glad you liked it

[@trevorholman3119]

ugh, lose the background music. Love the work on the plane!

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks for the feedback mate, most people like it and I bet if I did one without people would be asking for its return. Can't please everyone I guess.

[@mikeMuppetmodeller]

Nice work, excellent paint job. Really like this and have just subbed to the channel

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Mike, and welcome

[@Greg420_scale_models]

Fantastic Jamie as always she certainly is a superb looking 109.
Thank you for sharing the whole process , I've just bought some Abteilung oils to have a go at some oil weathering and your videos are such a help . I really like the idea of your oil sludge , How do you make it ? do you just simply thin the oil paint down to the right constituency or is it something else ?
Thanks again Jamie see you on Flory soon .
Many thanks
Greg .

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate. The sludge is very straight forward, I mix the tone I want and then add thinner drop by drop until it's about the consistency of overly warm margarine!

[@Greg420_scale_models]

@@thescalemodellingcafe That's great Jamie thank you . I'm just starting to play around with oils so thanks again for your advice and the how to's it's very appreciated 👍
