Nice one Penny. That is an impressive build.
I'm sure there will be many more of an equally high standard.

Thanks guys, Pork Chop, I used regular old Model Master enamal dull coat to seal the sludge wash on this one. For those who are wondering what kit beat me........ #:-) Well, it was the Fokker Dr.I in 28 scale built by modelcitizen62, a fellow Armoramian...... I hope to have more pics of this one in the near future....

Penny, sorry I missed this post earlier.

What a great 109. Very very crisp paint job, good looking decal work, clean clear canopy, vibrant colors. This is a great bird---congrats on you contest placement by the way.

Oh yeah, one more thing

The Hasegawa Bf 109 G-6 model is awesome! Very impressive! And congrats on winning the contests! Though I think they both deserved 1st place! When I finally get my hands on the Red Baron's Focker Triplane I know who to come to for tips and advice.

Cheers !!!
