I am just sitting here trying to clean up my work bench and saw that I had (4) unfinished Bf109's in the box where I keep my unfinished a/c and wondered who else had any that were unfinished.

It's my favorite aircraft. To leave one uncompleted would be a shame.

A Schwarm:



I have 6 more in my stash to build:)

Hmm, let's see...

I got 3 in different stages of unfinishedness: 1:48 scale Eduard G-6 (the old tooling one) and 1:72 AZ Model G-6 and AML K-4.
On top of that, there's Zvezda's 1:48 F-2 and F-4 waiting unstarted in the stash. So yeah, 5 in total.

Hi Bob

I haven't a clue! I went through part of my infamous "Stash" last week looking for vacuforms ahead of the planned campaign. I came across so many '109s, it shocked even me! I know it's one of my favourite aircraft, but still...

All the best

24 still unbuild in my every growing stash (22 x 1/48 and 2 x 1/32) and 7 built. Here the spanish/italian duett I've built for the Mediteranean Campaign several years ago ....

No unfinished 109s, but there are 8 on my display shelf,
all in 1/72, ranging from the Bf109V1 (MPM) to a Hispano Ha1112 Buchon (Special Hobby), by way of B,E,G and Avia variants

Howdy,

11 or 12 unfinished in 1/48, 5 or 6 in 1/72. Twice that many still in the box.

Now ask me how many unfinished P-47's I have.

Looks like I will be using one of the 109s as a test subject for my airbrush to test a bottle (vallejo Matt Varnish 26.51B) so see if it is really a flat.

Crazy question!!! Is there a reasonable limit to one's 109 stash? I don't think so

I'd say 2 on the bench right now plus 5 more at the stash, one being a long time hangar queen. All quarter scale. Might buy another one sometime this year

Oh dear:
- 1/48 Airfix E3 unstarted
- 1/48 Tamiya E3 - started many years ago
- 1/48 Hasegawa G6 almost complete (!)
- 1/32 revell new G6 started
- 1/32 Eduard E1 started
- 1/32 Cyberhobby E4 started

Was thinking about buying either an Eduard or Zvesda F of some sort but thought I ought to make a bit of progress on the stash first
