Does anyone have any ideas for me about how to incorporate a 109 into a dio? I am not entirely sure the overall feel of the dio, I am just looking for some ideas. Can you help me?

Well you can have the plane crash landed and the pilot getting out. Or some crew doing maintnence on it. There are a whole bunch of stuff. Google Bf-109 pics. Youll find some ideas.

Thanks, I was thinking about having it crashed and the Pilot getting out.

Gunther - I don't normally blow my own horn but check out https://armorama.kitmaker.net//features/217 maybe some ideas you can use ?

Thanks a lot CRS!!! That article is great, Now i will definetly crash my 109!

maybe crash your 109 in american territory and have 2 or so americans guarding him while he gets out, sort of a "gotcha" type thing

I new I should get on with this project, but the old dilema stikes again.. So Many Models, So Little Time.
The figures you might look for could be these:


The set is by Gunze, in resin, 1:35 scale. I have the Revell 1:32 109 waiting to be completed, basicly I need to get my airbrush sorted as I don't want to ruin the model with clumsy brush strokes.

Get going and we can have a little mini group build :-) :-) .

Wat scale is your 109 bij de weg?

Cheers

That is a fantastic idea Henk. My 109 is 1:48 scale. I should head on over to the hobby shop and pick up some Americans to go along with it.

at the moment I'm making a dio with a 109 in a blast pen in 1/72.
I'm using Preiser luftwaffe pilots and ground crew and an Airfix famo with 88 gun
maybe that's an idea

Take a look at this diorama:

i seriously doubt that he will take a look, his last post on Armorama is three years old

Great idea. I would go for the crashed one with the pilot climbing out to. Maybe a jeep or other little vehicle that stands or drives next to it.

P.S. Henk Meerdink, bij de weg is dutch
