Die Rollbahn
my Goal at the End: Gelbe 10 Uffz. Hans Döbrich, 6./JG 5, Petsamo, Finland, September 2, 1942
Here we go 🙂
some wires added
Black Base followed by Dark Rust
Next Light Rust
and weathering Set D of Tamiya for the finish
The Wheelwells had to be grinded to make the top wing fit properly ** correction!! Eduard numbered the wrong parts for the wheel wells. It used the wells for the 109G with the bigger wheels**
Some minor gaps at the fuselage-wing section when dry fitting. This is easily solved by first glueing the bottom wing, before ...
... stretching the top wing upwards until the the gap is closed for glueing
Finally the last step done. Ready for Paint
I love the MRP colors
Primed
Their primer is very smooth.
I tried a new way of Preshading... this is a first, so lets see what happens
The Yellow has a great Tone, but that little Preshade i made was allready to strong! i had to Reverse most of the Preshade with Primer in order to make the Yellow acceptable.
I hope the RLM78 Blue for the Belly doesnt have to get the same going as the yellow :|
I had to Re-Do the Spinner. My Flat Clear was clogging and had lots of clouds on it. So i removed the color and started again, this time playing with Shadows and Lights.
First Paintjob done. Need to correct the yellow fuselage ribbon
Starting weathering the Lower Wing.
This is how my workbench looks after a projekt. No matter how big your table is, at the end you'll be worklng on a space by 20x20cm 😄
On the finishing line. Only some touches here and there left and i'll call it done

Bart GoesaertMe too.. cockpit looks very good.. spinner and screw looks well used and I have to keep the painting method of the exhausts in mind...

Roger LustenbergerThank you guys!! 🙂 please, have a seat and support me to the end. Tipps, hints and feedbacks are always welcome.
@ Bart, the spinner looks alittle too much on the pics than it actually is.

Spanjaardspinner looking good. but it surprise me that you are leaving that mould line in the centre of the exhausts.

Spanjaardmy apologies then! i really did not know that. i better remember when i build a 109, otherwise i will probably remove them 🙂

Roger LustenbergerNo problem 😉 you caught me offäguard! had to check myself first

Roger Lustenbergersome progress with Paints made... what do you think? too much?

Razvan Comanis ok. a single question: on the vertical part of the chair is chipping between seat-belts? i cant tell from picture
Ps u did not used photo etch parts on pedals?
19 February 2017, 18:27
Roger LustenbergerHi Razvan, i did some small scatches on the seat, but mostly its actually some crystal glue i used to fix the belts. And for the pedals, i never use the photo etched ones because you wont see it at the end when both halfs are together.

Bart GoesaertIt's always nice to see one in non-standard camo's... Splendid work; also how you make the panels come forward...

Roger LustenbergerHey Bart, Thanks. I added a drop of White into the color and lightend each panels this way. check my Do-335, did it the same way.

Roger LustenbergerSlowly getting to an end. Missing the Antena & Clearparts and started with the Base and Figure

Razvan ComanExcelent work till now and the color scheme is unusual (in a very good sense) for the 109's
8 March 2017, 17:40
Roger LustenbergerFigure is done, the base awaits for the glue to harden and the antenna wire is missing on the Friedrich. This Weekend its getting its Roll-Out
