Just checking on you as I do occasionally! The project is looking good as usual I see! Keep up the good work my friend----Max

Looks like you've got a great little helper!  Nice progress on the 109.  It's always a good feeling getting the fuselage halves together and filled.  Like the race if half done.

 

Your friend, Toshi

Here is more progress.  Just a dry fit wing test.

I put together the wings and will be adding the canopy.

What color Scheme are you going for RLM 74/75/76?

What color Scheme are you going for RLM 74/75/76?

 

I always go with Mrs. Toshi and we both make use of the forty percent discount.  That discount helps out a lot.  In summation, whichever paint brand that has the availability of RLM 74/75/76.  crown r n7, thank you for inquiring and creating this conversation with me.

I haven‘t decided yet.  I do want to follow the box art and the paint scheme on the color fold out.  But I ran out of paint and I need to go to Hobby Lobby to purchase some, either Vallejo or Model Master paints.  I go to Hobby Lobby as they are in Macedonia, Ohio only twenty five minutes away from my home.  

 

I always go with Mrs. Toshi and we both make use of the forty percent discount.  That discount helps out a lot.  In summation, whichever paint brand that has the availability of RLM 74/75/76 will determine what paint scheme I’ll choose.  Then again, I can also mix my own colors to get close to the RLM codes and go from there.  crown r n7, thank you for inquiring and creating this conversation with me.

Recently I looked at that kit as reference and noticed both cannons were missing as well as the canopy.  So I’m going to trash that G4 kit in RLM 78/79/80 and as you inquired very possibly use the RLM 74/75/76.

Your friend, Toshi

Canopy masks were free hand cut.

Nice freehand canopy masking there, Toshi.

Here is Mr. Gustav wearing a coat of Tamiya Gray Lacquer Primer.  It was shot with a Iwata Eclipse HP-CS.

Slow and sure.  That’s how this build is going.  I got some of the mottle on and I haven’t attached the wheels yet.

Looking good Toshi! Coming into the home stretch

Your friend, Toshi

Nice to see you work on a new plane! 275 parts is a lot for 1:48 warplane of any era. Up to this point you've done so well. I believe you'll finish it in this month.

Your buddy,

Thanks Model Maniac!  Your support is greatly appreciated! 

Your friend, Toshi

To my fellow forum sisters and brothers,

I’ve been in bed with walking pneumonia for the last two weeks.  I’m feeling much better now!  

Here is the decal stage is.  As you can see the photos below, I could only get a gloss coat on for the decals.  I did attach four decals but I stopped because Mrs. Toshi said; “I should be resting in bed and forget Models for a few more days”. lol!  lol!  You know how we modelers try to get some bench time in.  

Your friend, Toshi

I've missed and wondered about you. Sorry you were ill. Glad you're back.

Happy decalling.

Don't know how I missed out on this one, but looking very nice.  Another Toshi build, nothing to nit-pick, well done my friend.

Glad you both are getting back up to speed, health wise.  Been a long hard road for you both.

I like the mottling Toshi!

I appreciate the kind words sir!  Thank you so much.  I’m going to try to enter this build into ”Finescale Magazine’s Gallery”.  Thank you for the support my fellow Forum Menbers, it’s greatly appreciated!

Thank you for wachting my back as always.  It’s really appreciated, it really is!  You know the red and white on the tail end of the Gustav?  That’s the first time I’ve ever made my stencil and sprayed on it.  I’m very happy of the outcome.  I feared that everything would turn pink!  lol!

Your friend,Toshi

I had enough rest for two weeks with walking pneumonia!  I feel much more better today then the last two weeks.  I still have a breathing problem but that should be resolved soon. 

So I’m having problem‘s with sleep this evening.  What do I do?  I started to finish Mr. Gustav!  lol!  Please see below for my complete photo’s of the Me Be 109.
