Yes it's another Bf109E for Holdfast's BoB campaign! Sorry - I'll try to be more original next time! But this one will have an unusual paint scheme... I promise! Anyway, here's a couple of new pics to show how things are coming along. I've put more text in my campaign folder.
This is my first try at linking to my folder in the new MSN UK site, so sorry if I've messed up.
All the best
Rowan

Sorry for messing everyone about!
Here's new links:
Parts are primed and dry-fitted with the u/c dressed up with sprue and fusewire. Hope there's some pics this time...

Cheers DVX!
Oh yes! Plenty of pre-shading! Although Adolf Galland's real a/c was quite clean, from the photos I've got, there definately some scope for weathering.
All the best, and I'm SO glad someone can see the pictures finally!

:-) Well Rowan that is looking pretty good. I do like the brake lines. What have you used, particularly for the clips? Glad to see you got the posting pics thing off :-)

Hi there
The clips are made from DIY-store aluminium tape. It comes on a big roll, like decorators' masking tape, and I find it really useful stuff. It burnishes down well and can make quite convincing raised panels etc. It might be known as "plumbers' tape". It's worth looking out for
