Messerschmitt bf 109e : Completing A Build That Was Started 49 Years Earlier

Messerschmitt bf 109e : Completing A Build That Was Started 49 Years Earlier
October 14, 2021

This Airfix kit was given kindly to me. It is a 1/24 Messerschmitt bf 109e which was partly made by a chap called George Bogg. We think the model was started in 1973 by George. 

It took a while to clean it up, take it apart before putting back together. Sadly, while George put in motors  I was unable to make them work.  He had also put a lot of effort into detailing the model making many modifications to the original kit.

Italeri produces some fantastic model kits and their 1:48 scale Lockheed F-117A Stealth Nighthawk is a perfect example of that.

As models go this is a very simple build while challenging in it’s own right. In terms of size, the kit once complete is a decent size model.

Revell Vought F4U-1A Corsair Model Kit 1:32 Build Review
July 17, 2019

Revell Vought F4U-1A Corsair Model Kit proved to be a challenging build. As models go it was not only quite cheap but also quite big.

While this may be an old kit, there is a lot you can do with the model right out of the box. There is an option which allows you to have the wings folded, but for this build, I chose not to.

Italeri EA 18G Growler as kits go is certainly something I would recommend to other model plane builders.

The model its self is made from good quality plastic with plenty of detail. While it is not supplied with figures this is not a major problem as they can be added.
