DISREGARD. looks like i've read the instruction sheet half assed, Tamiya did call the RLM #s as: 71/02/65

Marc Schimmler
Makes sense for an E-3

Holger Kranich
71/02/65 that it!
And 02 for the wheelwells and cockpit!

Holger Kranich
Prop and spinner should be rlm66 as far as i know!

Murad ÖZER
Thanks Holger, any details about the inner/wing side of the control surfaces - are they supposed to be 02 too?

Holger Kranich
Yes, they have!
I have a buildthread that showes quite nice, what has to be painted 02!

Holger Kranich
What kind of paint will u use? Tamiya? Gunze? Vallejo?

Murad ÖZER
Gunze / Tamiya. I do have gunze h70 for rlm02. will check your build thread btw, thanks.

Holger Kranich
As long as its a brownish grey with a light green tint, it will match 02!😢😄😢

Sorry Holger but prop and spinner should be rlm70 as far as i know!

Holger Kranich
Hi Elias, as far as i know, both is possible!

Hi Holger, is it possible to give me some reference to check about rlm66?
I'm interested on early Bf-109's so I'll appreciate your help.
One more question about 109's wheels, they where painted rlm66 or rlm22 (black)?

Holger Kranich
Hello Elias!
The tyres was "Continental rubber black" so natural rubber. You can use anthrazit or normal black for them. If you use rlm 66 or 22 depends on your personal favorite and the theater of action. All the rest of gear and wheels was painted rlm02. On some early types the rear wheel had white stripes on both sides. Just like some oldtimers! 🙂
