My next Bf-109 groupbuild entry! The one-off Bf-109G03, with a V-tail. Build will be OOB, I think 🙂

Cool erik got some japanese kits by them in 72!
They look quite difficult

Erik Leijdens
Hi Daniel! Well this is one is pretty much just as easy as a vanilla Hasagawa 109F/G. Except for the resin parts off course. Although it fits quite nicely

Erik Leijdens
Cockpit ready and gave the resin tail some tlc for a better fit. Coming along now, despite my cat who's favorite spot is the 109s box 😄

That it's exactly what happens to everyone who owns a cat...????

I have to keep my Stage Coach kit box in a cat proof position

Nathan Dempsey
Nice cockpit 🙂

I think you could place even the smallest 1:144 kit box on the floor and my cats would try to lay in it. Mine are dangerous in the hobby room though and are no longer allowed entry.

Urban Gardini
Now this is something you rarely ever see, the 109 that is as a box is normal habitat for cats. But what a cutie she is!
11 November 2020, 21:39
Erik Leijdens
Indeed all cats do this! But she is only 10 weeks old now so for this moment she is allowed entry but this will most certainly change 😄

Urban Gardini
My cat weigh in at 5.3 kg and is to be considered a force of nature. But he loves boxes...
11 November 2020, 21:43
Paulo Costa
Mine, has 12 years old and what she really loves it is......sleep!!!????
11 November 2020, 21:47
Martin Oostrom
To prevent the cat-in-hobby-room issue, we have an old box in the next room. It's her favourite box to sit on 😄

Nice cat and Nice cockpit

Patrick Hagelstein
Plenty of empty boxes, but no cat yet. Does she come in handy when scraping plastic? I might need one then... 😉

Added the tail and wings, really odd looking creature 🙂. A Messerschmitt Bonanza
16 November 2020, 15:58
Nathan Dempsey
A deadly Bonanza 😄

Cool subject, following.

Kees Kleijwegt
Cool!

Erik..... I don't want to be THAT guy....... but, isn't the original tail shifted more towards the starboard side? When looking at your cover picture from straight back the port tail sits on the fuselage heart line while the port tail is protruding from the lower right. Dat dus..... 🙁
1 December 2020, 21:33
Erik Leijdens
Well Patrick, exactly what I thought AFTER glueing the tail to the fuselage.. But, after some research on the Internets and in some books I did not came across a single mentioning of the tail being off centre.. Think I will keep it this way now since it already received its black base coat..😢

Jos Jansen
There you go Erik...she is already a Black Beauty 😉!

Looking good Erik.

Erik Leijdens
Thanks mates!! Means a lot!

Paintjob as good as done. Added some steel pins to the 2 tailplanes as they broke off numerous times grrrr!
3 December 2020, 21:07
Clifford Keesler
Good idea.

Very cool!

Patrick Hagelstein
😄 Erik, isn't that the beauty of things? Discovering stuff AFTER glueing or painting? 😉 Good thing though that you found it out yourself! As said, I didn't want to be THAT guy. 😉

Nathan Dempsey
Looking great 🙂

A nice build, neat and sleek model Erik! You have an eye for historical awareness...top 👍.
4 December 2020, 20:04
Erik Leijdens
Thanks mates!! Added a gloss finish. Next—-> decals
7 December 2020, 22:48
Clifford Keesler
Agree with Roland, looking very nice.
8 December 2020, 23:06
Erik Leijdens
Unfortunately the kit decals are totally unusable as they disintegrate when they get wet OR when they don't they don't stick on the model.... So all the decals have to be acquired from the spares box. A modelling mate provides me with the letters. Will try to use the white WNr. decal, since I don't have that in spare...we'll see!
11 December 2020, 06:56
Spanjaard
what a pity about those decals.....well, if you need just a letter.... you can always mask and airbrush.
11 December 2020, 09:25
Jos Jansen
Yes, you can Erik 😉 👍 Great work as always mate!
11 December 2020, 19:03
Erik Leijdens
Crosses on the underside too big and wrong position so they had to go! Unfortunately the decals weren't going anywhere. No reaction on Set and Sol tho weaken them, Tamiya tape no effect, even Ductape didn't bothered them. Overspraying them was the only solution.
11 December 2020, 21:42
Clifford Keesler
That stinks, but I am sure you will over come it.
12 December 2020, 01:29
Erik Leijdens
Decals done now 🙂

@Murad, when I first saw this 109 variant I knew I HAD to build me one! Bought this kit on EBay for too much money 😄. With unusable decals too haha 🤔
