Just getting back into plastic models after a 35 year break. Your videos are wonderful, and are helping me to relearn old skills, and learn new ones. I have just ordered this same kit, but I have a number of other kits I don't care much about to practice on before attempting the BF-109. And like Tom W said, I'm pretty sure I built this same kit back in the 70's. I was probably around 10 or 11 years old then!
Thanks Alex. After a long and rubbish day at work, I've spent a very pleasant hour watching you build your Gustav. Great result on your model! And a good result for me too as I can feel the modelling interest flowing again. Lovely build and vid. Cheers mate.
You obviously put a lot of work into the model and the video, well done and thank you for sharing. I miss building plastic model kits. Many fond memories of success and failiure, only competing with your own expectations.
Btw.. be carefull when placing the socond half of the wings and the seam line.. you can do a good job covering it but if you do some pressure or pick the model by the tip of the wing... that putty breaks and the seam opens
Actually Alex I made a mistake at this stage when I put those parts on. Being inexperienced with aircraft models I put too much pressure on with clamp. I have a section of the wing that has a dip in it near the flaps. Oops ! I am hoping it won't be too noticeable. I have learnt my lesson. Btw. U got some good tips in seam lines from watching your vid mate.
Armour Empire thanks! And dont worry about that seam line i was inexperienced too because its not a usual fit.. usually is on the wing root with the fuselage!
Hello Alex, the color of the propeller blades on German aircraft was RLM 70 black-green. The bulletproof glass was installed on the inside of the G variants. Bulletproof glass outside were available for the F variants😉👍
Even tough i don’t like revell, for obvious reasons, you did a great job! I started a trumpeter 1/32 bf 109 E4 and the quality of the kit is fantastic!
It is absolutely beautiful work Alex. It is magazine worthy that is for sure. You should definitely put this into a show if you get the opportunity. I think this one may be a medal winner.
Hallo Alex, I restarted building kits and I enjoy very much your uploads how to build airplanes. Their are a big help for me and I have learned a lot. Keep on going!!! You're top!!!
oh my, you made a german here very happy :) what a beauty, she is stunning! i have thes ame kit in my stash, now my fingers are itching. love the rivet counter discussion and the engine start scene :)
G'Day Alex. To add to all the comments here, this is the first vid of yours I've watched and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The skit at the end was hillarious! I've learnt a lot from watching and I must say that your video editing is excellent, one of the best I've seen in the business. Thanks for putting these up. I've not built a model in about 20 years! I've gone a bit nuts and bought a heap of Mr Hobby paints and an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS airbrush plus a few kits so I'm all set to start again. I've been educating myself for about 6 weeks now and haven't even cut a pieve off the spru yet. Wow times have sure changed since I was a kid! Back then if you could find a book to teach you techniques you couldn't afford it! The youtube/forum age has made things so much better :-) Cheers mate.....she looks awesome! Edit: And your music selection suited the film perfectly.....very nice!
Great video Alex, I really enjoyed the whole build, and moreover I'll be usimg this as a reference for when I get to build my G6. I had a good laugh at the end with your alter ego! :) Thank you for sharing!
Carlos meu amigo obrigado por tudo.. e por tudo tu sabes o que é. . A i n tro e tudo não era possivel se... thanks for watching... ah e fico contente q tenhas gostado do gemeo... :) Abraco
Absolutely beautiful! I wish I had a fraction of your talent. I wouldnt listen to that guy sitting on the lounge with you. He's just bitter and twisted that he doesn't have your skill and craftsmanship!
....Your Most Welcome Amigo..!...I have to Many Models to build...It's beyond Me.! ...As of Yesterday...I started to Build a 1/72 scale Blue Angels from Italeri....Looks easy....Should have it done by weeks end...
“Fuckin rivet counters.” Love it! Too damn funny! Despite the rivet counters opinions, like everyone else I think it looks great. Love how you use a sponge to show paint chips. I’ll have to try that on my next airplane. Thank you for sharing, Cheers!
what brush is he using to soak up the "oil look" in gear wells? also why enamel over acrylic paint? I am just now starting to get really into model building and need some advice.
Rivet counters can go stuff themselves... :) Loved the discussion at the end, and it was most interesting to follow the build.. the end result is stunning!! :) I hope to dedicate next year to more German aircraft, I need to add to my collection of Luftwaffe fighters, both Bf 109's and Fw 190's, as well as other German aircraft of that vintage.. I have no shortage of kits so will probably do some double- tripple- or even quadruple builds.. who knows! Then again, I was supposed to have built a lot of 1/48 scale stuff THIS year and that didn't happen.. so we have to wait and see.. :)
AlexModeling Ha ha ha ha ha... when I win the lottery, Alex... when I win the lottery!!! :) For some reason my wife won't let me kick my son out and take over his room.. (don't know why he can't sleep in the car??) so for now I have to carry on storing my builds as best I can.. :)
It's so satisfying to see these models done well, I'm looking for an airbrush for myself because I like to spray paint things because it's so much neater than a standard brush
im doing an Academy 1/48 g6 currently, for the top tones i am doing a Tamiya Dark green and Tamiya dark grey; im not sure what the sides and bottom of the aircraft should be, i was thinking light blue but now im not sure. any suggestions? thanks.
MrPenguinlord1 do you know wich color markings is? wich staffel? and the color reference? knowing this i can help you but,,, maybe sky blue but right now i dont know mate...
I guess the one Alex thinks it should be thrown out the window, eh? Great workmanship again Alex. That gap at the aft section, underneath was quite the shocker to see. I like the build along format, works pretty good. Again, great looking build.
Yes sir it was. I thought I had seen one you had puttied in front of the tail wheel. All these videos, hard to keep 'em straight. Forget I said anything, right.
mate... if it is no problem... dont forget that im no professional.. never was and i think never will be... if it is i admit... if i was a professional i would live of this, i never had the intention of be a "wanna be pro"... some kits i do are good other are not... this one for instance you didn´t saw that but i tell you straight forward that i exchanged the colors on one wing... i had my GF on the hospital was not in my best days but one of the things i like most is that each, i repeat each kit i do is atached with something in my life... i just post the videos for fun... if there is a gap, then point it to me and i acept it no problem, but i think that if you going to do that on every single one... your going to have some work.. i do what i do for a hobbie and to show and tell, share... of corse there are errors and gaps and seems... until the day i have them but i have some personnal attachment to the models? i will love this hobbie... all the bes
Alex Please, I believe what I said has been misconstrued. I meant nothing critical of your workmanship. I have always admired your work, your output, and very jealous of your good looks. I never noticed the colors switched around. And am sorry to hear your Grand Father is not feeling his best. Maybe, I should have elaborated just a pinch. I was surprised for a modern kit, that didn't fit that well, in that spot and you did a wonderful job of fixing what was given to you. Certainly no critique of your build by any stretch of the imagination. If I've slighted you in the least, it was not my intention. I would not be able to apologize enough, in both of our lifetimes. I mean that sincerely.
Dave Pugh my friend.. please now let me ( :) ) answer.. i would never ever be ofended by one of those who is with me quite since the beginning of my existence here on YT;) i understand what you ve told... later i realise the gap it was... it fitted perfect but because my Girl friend ( not grand father and sorry if the initials musled you) was at the hospital (a tumor wich was removed along with other organ) i was not paying attention and forgot to place the bottom of the air intake and so i had to re open again and because of that didnt fit the way it should on the second time (of corse) :) dont get me wrong ok? No problem... you know what? You just gave me the idea for my next video... and i thank you.. you will see after:) no my friend i would never be ofended by positiv criticism! And i thank you for that... and you are righ... i had to work a lot on that seam line after the major cluster f**** i ve made;) everuthyng is ok now and she is recovering just fine... thank YOU!:)
A few Fit & Filling Issues, You have As Always Rose to the Challenge, Gr8 Job!! Bought Kit Myself Now. Keep Making Us All Smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I found in amazon this same model, can you give me the name of the paints and that spray you use, I want to follow the video and make the same :) if you could pass me the page where I can get them!
hello Will thanks for watching my video! the reason why that paint is like that is because i use enamels to paint it. i used airbrush ready enamel paints... enamels are thicker and more easy to hand paint! i aplyed it directly from the jar! :)
Eu acho o bf 109 um avião muito bonito. Não se prestava muito em combate, principalmente as versões finais, mas era bonito e os esquemas de decoração e camuflagem muito bacanas.
Yes the detail in the cockpit is much better but the rudder & wings are needlessly complicated. In addition, the original kit had only three pieces that made up the propeller (a one piece three blade prop, the prop boss & a back plate that fit into the prop boss) what detail advantage is gained by having to affix each propeller blade into the prop back plate?
Just getting back into plastic models after a 35 year break. Your videos are wonderful, and are helping me to relearn old skills, and learn new ones. I have just ordered this same kit, but I have a number of other kits I don't care much about to practice on before attempting the BF-109. And like Tom W said, I'm pretty sure I built this same kit back in the 70's. I was probably around 10 or 11 years old then!
And after about 5 sittings, I finally manage to watch it all. A masterclass Alex. Great work as ever.
its a long one i know Ian:) thank you very much! glad you like it!
Giga Exellent👌
I built the an original one of these in the '70's. Movable control surfaces, retractable landing gear, detailed cockpit, & scale engine
I Still have the Matchbix One with the Verlinden resin and metal extras
Great work Alex, looks fantastic. And the perfect video to spend some time on a rainy sunday.
honored!:)
Alex, love the build. The Rivet Counter skit at the end was GREAT!!! Keep up the great work..
And i love you picture. . Your avatar its just my favorit 50s aircraft! Hustler forever!
Great Scot I have never learned so much about modelling from one video. Thanks.
By the way, bloody good model.
thank you for your comment gyruss! always a pleasure to "see" you here! honored
Thanks Alex. After a long and rubbish day at work, I've spent a very pleasant hour watching you build your Gustav. Great result on your model! And a good result for me too as I can feel the modelling interest flowing again. Lovely build and vid. Cheers mate.
Honored that my video has help you!:)
A really nice built! Keep the good work going
Excellent build and video with a great ending. Thank you.
thanks Tony!
You obviously put a lot of work into the model and the video, well done and thank you for sharing. I miss building plastic model kits. Many fond memories of success and failiure, only competing with your own expectations.
+Bapao SevenSix agree:) why dont uou try again a small 1/72? on a lazy sunday afternoon...:)
Alex, I have to watch this video every so often, it inspires me in my model building. Your attention to detail is amazing!
sorichar thank you!
What a superb piece of modelling Alex! I enjoyed the video from beginning to the end! A really outstanding result my friend!
thanks Cees! nice seing you! awsome work on the Typhoon!
Great video. Nice editing and a very good looking model too. And lol great conversation in the end. ;)
Thanks... it was a pleasure to work on it and edit it! :)
I love how you did the top of the air craft dark. That effect makes it look so authentic.
Thank you Anthony... im glad you enjoied it!
Great job on the 109!
thank you!:)
Awesome build alex thanks for sharing
Fantastic build and vid. Fun to watch. Learnd very much of this vid.
Greetings, Urs
thank you Urs!
Your videos, this specifically, put me into scale modelling again. So, thanks!
+H. D. Afentoulidis no.. thank You for saying me that! honored! im glad i could "help":)
AlexModeling Make sure to keep building models!
Wow. Epic Alex. Fantastic work mate. I shall be watching this again to get tips as I progress. Well done mate
Not my best but this ome helped me a lot and i enjoied it very much! I would be very happy if you use it! Cheers
Btw.. be carefull when placing the socond half of the wings and the seam line.. you can do a good job covering it but if you do some pressure or pick the model by the tip of the wing... that putty breaks and the seam opens
Actually Alex I made a mistake at this stage when I put those parts on. Being inexperienced with aircraft models I put too much pressure on with clamp. I have a section of the wing that has a dip in it near the flaps. Oops ! I am hoping it won't be too noticeable. I have learnt my lesson. Btw. U got some good tips in seam lines from watching your vid mate.
Armour Empire thanks! And dont worry about that seam line i was inexperienced too because its not a usual fit.. usually is on the wing root with the fuselage!
boas Alex
excelente trabalho e obrigado por partilha-lo connosco!

Thumbs up, glad to see the historically accurate Swastika on the tail!
Even tough i don’t like revell, for obvious reasons, you did a great job! I started a trumpeter 1/32 bf 109 E4 and the quality of the kit is fantastic!
I have that same kit, And never built it before... Maybe its time... Have Fun!
Hi Alex, I really enjoyed this Video mate, Excellent work on that 109. Cool split screen at the end as well. Keep up the quality work mate
STEVEN!!! so nice to "see you" my good friend! Thanks
Great video. Had to order the simiular kit myslef! Will paintbrush it, can't compare with you're build thou! :)
It is absolutely beautiful work Alex. It is magazine worthy that is for sure. You should definitely put this into a show if you get the opportunity. I think this one may be a medal winner.
Had a lot of fun on this one as you know... and a lot of worries associated to it; )
Really high quality work. Well done.

makes me want to start working on mine. ^^
Go ahead and start!

The three sponges to hold the model.. Very clever.
Really cool video, I loved the build, your twin brother is such a rivet counter ;)
Ehehe.. yes he is! The rivet counter in all of us...
great job !
Good Job Alex
Thanks for sharing your techniques... as a 99% armor aficionado... I'm inspired to attempt a 1/48 scale aircraft.
Quixotic Modeler do it!:)
Excellent work on this famous fighter!
Thanks Alex:)
Well done!

look forward to your video Cap!:)
Very good video. Well done.
Thank you!
Respect, what a nice build thumbs up from me and like to follow you and see more off this.
I am new whiff modeling so hoop to learn from you 👍
what brush is he using to soak up the "oil look" in gear wells? also why enamel over acrylic paint? I am just now starting to get really into model building and need some advice.
Rivet counters can go stuff themselves... :) Loved the discussion at the end, and it was most interesting to follow the build.. the end result is stunning!! :) I hope to dedicate next year to more German aircraft, I need to add to my collection of Luftwaffe fighters, both Bf 109's and Fw 190's, as well as other German aircraft of that vintage.. I have no shortage of kits so will probably do some double- tripple- or even quadruple builds.. who knows! Then again, I was supposed to have built a lot of 1/48 scale stuff THIS year and that didn't happen.. so we have to wait and see.. :)
thanks Rob! by now you must be searching for another house... just to put your colection on!!:)
AlexModeling Ha ha ha ha ha... when I win the lottery, Alex... when I win the lottery!!! :) For some reason my wife won't let me kick my son out and take over his room.. (don't know why he can't sleep in the car??) so for now I have to carry on storing my builds as best I can.. :)
GREAT BUILD
hi i want to start modelling and a question. what are easier to start on 1/72 or something bigger like the one you just made
well done thank you
thank you! :)
It's so satisfying to see these models done well, I'm looking for an airbrush for myself because I like to spray paint things because it's so much neater than a standard brush
John Fisher good luck on your modeling adventures :)
AlexModeling Thank you very much and do you need to use thinner when using an air brush? I'm assuming you do because spray paints have thinner in them
+John Fisher i mix 50 50 ratio paint and thinner either acrilic or enamel and pour it on tge airbrush cup
AlexModeling What type of airbrush do you suggest for me because I have been looking at cheap starter kits under £40
I love your video, very clear and precise. Nice work. :-)))
Juan Severino thank you:) gracias Juan!
Thanks for the video.
Tank YOU for watching it my friend
u r a real artist
David Cai thank you for your kind words... im just a modeler:)
I like Bf109.It is model very cool!
+まろやかよーぐると thank you i am honored

THIS LOOKS AWESOME !!!
Thank you!!:)
Welcome! You have great channel !
glad you like it!:) honest!
I guess the one Alex thinks it should be thrown out the
window, eh?
Great workmanship again Alex.
That gap at the aft section, underneath was quite the shocker to see.
I like the build along format, works pretty good.
Again, great looking build.
underneath its not a gap Dave. 109s were built in half sections and joined on the fuselage with that line.. up and below! thanks
Yes sir it was.
I thought I had seen one you had puttied in front of the tail wheel.
All these videos, hard to keep 'em straight.
Forget I said anything, right.
mate... if it is no problem... dont forget that im no professional.. never was and i think never will be... if it is i admit... if i was a professional i would live of this, i never had the intention of be a "wanna be pro"... some kits i do are good other are not... this one for instance you didn´t saw that but i tell you straight forward that i exchanged the colors on one wing... i had my GF on the hospital was not in my best days but one of the things i like most is that each, i repeat each kit i do is atached with something in my life... i just post the videos for fun... if there is a gap, then point it to me and i acept it no problem, but i think that if you going to do that on every single one... your going to have some work.. i do what i do for a hobbie and to show and tell, share... of corse there are errors and gaps and seems... until the day i have them but i have some personnal attachment to the models? i will love this hobbie... all the bes

Please, I believe what I said has been misconstrued.
I meant nothing critical of your workmanship.
I have always admired your work, your output,
and very jealous of your good looks.
I never noticed the colors switched around.
And am sorry to hear your Grand Father is not feeling his best.
Maybe, I should have elaborated just a pinch.
I was surprised for a modern kit, that didn't fit
that well, in that spot and you did a wonderful job of fixing what was given to you.
Certainly no critique of your build by any stretch of the imagination.
If I've slighted you in the least, it was not my intention. I would not be able to apologize enough, in both of our lifetimes.
I mean that sincerely.
Dave Pugh my friend.. please now let me ( :) ) answer.. i would never ever be ofended by one of those who is with me quite since the beginning of my existence here on YT;) i understand what you ve told... later i realise the gap it was... it fitted perfect but because my Girl friend ( not grand father and sorry if the initials musled you) was at the hospital (a tumor wich was removed along with other organ) i was not paying attention and forgot to place the bottom of the air intake and so i had to re open again and because of that didnt fit the way it should on the second time (of corse) :) dont get me wrong ok?

Keep Making Us All Smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE HOFF MERRY CHRISTMAS!! thanks!
& to you & your Familly, Looking Forward to Viewing your Future Builds, Keep it Up!!!!
Good job☺
Genial !
Just curious, is there another way to do that camouflage stuff in 33:47 without having to use that tool? And plus great build! :-)
I found in amazon this same model, can you give me the name of the paints and that spray you use, I want to follow the video and make the same :) if you could pass me the page where I can get them!
Nice stuff
Thanks Jeremy!
From Lourinhã- very nice mottling job!
Lourinhã.. grande terra
The Sponges are such a nice Stand to rest the model, wonder why i never got that idea. Will use it soon!!!
How did you get the yellow paint in the cockpit to have such a thick look to it... When i use yellow it looks really watery
hello Will thanks for watching my video! the reason why that paint is like that is because i use enamels to paint it. i used airbrush ready enamel paints... enamels are thicker and more easy to hand paint! i aplyed it directly from the jar! :)
Hi Alex!!
One question, what material did you use for the cable from the cabin to the tail of the plane?
Cheers!
great model
Thanks
You're very skillful and I enjoyed this. One thing I noticed was the wing crosses on top should have been closer to the fuselage.
Would a gravity feed airbrush be good for modelling
Eu acho o bf 109 um avião muito bonito. Não se prestava muito em combate, principalmente as versões finais, mas era bonito e os esquemas de decoração e camuflagem muito bacanas.
Compared to the original Revell 1/32 scale kit this one is without a doubt needlessly more complicated.
I agree but its very good in detail and also very good to put together!:) thanks:)
Yes the detail in the cockpit is much better but the rudder & wings are needlessly complicated. In addition, the original kit had only three pieces that made up the propeller (a one piece three blade prop, the prop boss & a back plate that fit into the prop boss) what detail advantage is gained by having to affix each propeller blade into the prop back plate?
Where can I get that green paint and the spraying thing
What's that 'thing' you used to 'spray' the paint?
For future reference. You’re supposed to leave the center section of the fuel tube clear. That’s why it’s cast in clear plastic.
Thank you!
Excelente vídeo, Alex! Estou começando no plastimodelismo e, espero, um dia, ter sua habilidade. Tenho muito a aprender.
+Alexandre Klafke vais chegar la Alex... eu ainda sou amador acredita! Abraço
How did you make the Canopy so clear. Did it came out of the box, or did you spray something on it?
