ohhhhh que trabajo mas precioso...gracias por dejarmelo ver....llevo tiempo pensando en montar uno asi y me ha dado ideas usted ....muchisimas gracias ....Alfonso B...
Beautiful job all round...shame about losing part of the building phase but we get the general idea how the model went together. Great camo scheme.....something different and very well done. It's good to see some 1/32 scale builds on YT as they don't happen very often.....understand your thinking around handling bigger scales....my hands aren't as adept and flexible as they used to be so I only build in 1/32, 1/35 and 1/350 for the various model kits I now have in my stash. Thanks for sharing! Robert
Superb !!! I LOVE bf 109 aircrafts and I have this kit in my stash. I will definitly use watch your video again when I plan to build it. Congratulations.
Unfortunately I have lost the video footage of this particular stage so I can't reply with a factual answer. If memory serves, however, it wasn't as hard as you describe it to be... The only difficult part was setting some tubes in the right place, which I did using thin pliers and setting the glue step by step.
No, it's not water.. it's white spirit.. Enamel-based washes require corresponding solvents... Enamel thinner, white spirit or even zippo fluid will do the trick. I dabbed the q-tip lightly and squeezed the excessive fluid off before "washing off the washes"! Cheers :)
Nice build! Loved the use of household stuff as tools, like the pill packaging for mixing paint and the microwave turntable! You made it look easy to build - was it?
Well, it wasn't exactly a piece of cake, but I can't say it was very difficult also... the most difficult parts in my opinion, for every model, are the clear parts ( this one was relatively easy, since the package included pre-cut masks) and the tiny PE parts. This build wasn't the hardest I've built... Larger scales allow for ease of handling of parts better than the small ones. Generally speaking, I consider a model "hard to build" if the parts don't fit well together. Apart from that, we make the build hard or easy, in dependence of the degree of detail we want to present and the diversity of paints used. For example, preshading, postshading and marbling make things harder that just painting! Thank you for watching! :)
No. Here is the info quoted in the instructions manual of the model: "Yellow ‘1’, W.Nr. 5057, was flown by the commander of 6. Staffel JG 51, Josef Priller, and underwent several camouflage color modifications through its career. According to some sources, the initial scheme was composed of RLM 70/71/65. However, it is easier to confirm later variations, when the underside light blue was extended up the sides of the fuselage, and quite high up at that. Later, this color was subdued by the application of irregular squiggles of RLM 02 and 71. Furthermore, the upper surfaces of the wing, originally composed of broken lines, were augmented in a similar manner as the fuselage sides. This was the appearance of the aircraft in the fall of 1940, and as depicted by our profile.At the time, the aircraft also received a yellow nose section and rudder. The extent of the front end yellow coloring is up for speculation. Some sources suggest this as it appears on the boxtop of this kit, while others claim that the yellow only covered the engine cowl and spinner, as shown in this profile. The emblem of II./JG 51 ‘Gott strafe England!’ (God punish England!) shown on the rear of the fuselage, is sprayed on without the usual white background, only with the black border around a black raven with an umbrella, symbolizing Neville Chamberlain. The Staffel marking in the form of the Ace of Hearts subsequently was used on Priller’s later aircraft as a personal marking. Here, it does not yet bear the well-known ‘Jutta’ inscription. The kill marks denoting Priller’s aerial victories on the tail in the form of vertical tabs with dates, partially obscured the Swastika. Beer lover Josef Priller attained 101 aerial victories in 1,307 operational flights between 1939 and 1945. The pictured aircraft was later inherited by another well-known Luftwaffe pilot, Hptm. Herbert Ihlefeld, who used it in 1941 in the Balkan campaign."
At the time, this stand is available only in Greece, since the person who makes them isn't so far interested in exporting them (although I've been trying to convince him). However, some such contraptions have been floating around some chinese sites like Ali xpress... Thank you for watching :)
Fantastic build. Have this kit in my stash. Loving the camo scheme, something different from the usual Luftwaffe splinter camo, so definitely be doing that one when I get round to building mine. Remind me, is that the box art scheme (number 1)?
This is one of Josef „Pips“ Prillers planes…. Actually, all 109s came out of the factory in the splinter camo. This one too. It would have been changed at squadron level in the field as necessities dictated. Prillers squadron received an airbrush touch up of RLM 02 OVER the splinter camo, so on the wings it would still be visible underneath. Also, since this is an early E-3 version used in the French campaign and at the beginning of the Battle of Britain, the underside colour would most probably be the regulation RLM 65 instead of 76. But nevertheless, the workmanship is very nice.
It's a very well executed build and impressive camo paint, meanwhile I'm in love with the paint scheme of the French campaign with blue sides and huge squares surfaces on the wings.
Just a wonderful job sir. Fantastic camo work. I continue to learn from your videos. Thank you.
Thank you very much Norman !! :)

Thank you very much! Truth is, it's not easy to go detailing an 1:72 cockpit, is it?
Nothing less than incredible!

I love the camo pattern, great job.
Thank you. Glad you like it!
Nice paint job! I've never seen Joseph Priller's plane depicted with this type of paint job on the upper surfaces.
Thank you very much!
verry beautifull réalisation, fantastic paint
Thank you very much :)
Great build, I really liked the camo pattern.
Thank you very much :)
How did you assembly motor and fusolage? I have problem with them

The most beautiful fighter in World War II... Amazing
Thank you :)
Fantastic Work!!!
Question 🙋♂️ after you pin washed it what did you use on the cotton bud to clean up was it water or something else? Cheers
No, it's not water.. it's white spirit.. Enamel-based washes require corresponding solvents... Enamel thinner, white spirit or even zippo fluid will do the trick. I dabbed the q-tip lightly and squeezed the excessive fluid off before "washing off the washes"! Cheers :)
@@wbpsmodels3452 thank you good sir muchly appreciated 👍 and again fantastic model mate
Beautiful work!

Is this one of the Abbeville aircraft? Perhaps Dolfi Galland??

Ok. I need to re study that history. Did Galland fly with this JG?
Hello, very good vidéo, tanks you for the job
Thank you very much :)
Very nice. Way above my skill level. Is the painting stand something that you can purchase commercially ?
At the time, this stand is available only in Greece, since the person who makes them isn't so far interested in exporting them (although I've been trying to convince him). However, some such contraptions have been floating around some chinese sites like Ali xpress... Thank you for watching :)

Fantastic build. Have this kit in my stash. Loving the camo scheme, something different from the usual Luftwaffe splinter camo, so definitely be doing that one when I get round to building mine. Remind me, is that the box art scheme (number 1)?
Yes, I tried to create the box-art scheme. No 1 in the manual. Thank you for watching :)

Thank you very much :)
so, did you cecide already if it's a G-6 , an E-3 or, an E-6 .... :-))) it's a nice work anyway !
lol.. yes, you're right.. I discovered my typo afterwards... It's an E3. period!. Thanks for watching! :)
Ok nice model, now put the cowing back on...
