This is the first model I've done in months,and it was lots of fun. This kits a beauty and worth every penny. Its the Tamiya Bf-109E-3 by tamiya in 1/48th scale, it's built OOB, except for the Eduard P/E kit in the interior.

Here ya go, I wasn't able to take these before because it had just started raining. That last pic of the tail wasn't taken on the wood because I had moved to get shelter :-)

Hi David!
Nice "Messer"! I like the weathering, especially the exhaust stains! This is the way to go!

Nice work. I really like the weathering around the tail.
Btw. this early bf-190 reminds me about my goofing with my fighter pilot career in IL2 sturmovik. Yesterday I decided to delete my Focke wulf career. I carelessly pressed "delete" without noticing that the career selected was not the Fw-190 one but my Bf-190 campaign!
I had flown 55 combat missions with over 100 kills! Now I have to fly those early Bf-190's if I'm going to start all over again where I originally started that career that I deleted.
