Just posin'. The leg looks straight in the photo but it does have that classic angle of a 109

Nice going and pose away George.

109 classic is better than new 109.

You've done some nice work there Geo.

Looks great so far George!

Thank you Andy. I think I found it. The colour name, as with most Vallejo paint threw me. Don't let the pic throw you, there is a green tint in real life. Close to yours and almost bang on to Wojtek's chip above. I give you 71013, Yellow Olive

I love Vallejo paints so I'll most likely add this one to my Luftwaffe paint set

Looks good Geo.

Thanks guys. Been fighting Fluvid or whatever it is I brought home from camp and then promptly gave it to the missus. On finals now and after the Canuck game I'll do some minor touch-ups and post the pics. The last two items to be glued on were the Morane antenna under the wing and the pitot tube, both of which were really poor renditions of the real things. The antenna was a long rectangle so I cut some off, bored a hole in the end and inserted some stretched sprue. Not quite spec but good enough. Those fine point tweezers I just got were very useful here. According to some sources, this antenna was made from wood and varnished, hence the brown colour. The pitot tube was even worse. Again a rectangle but no where near long enough. After some pondering about stretching sprue again I decided to use a spare one from the Eduard kit that I am also building for this GB

Good little fixes George, hope the game went well.

Typical Canuck game Vic. Take the lead into the third period, quit playing and lose. How they are in first place overall is beyond me

 

[Vic Balshaw]

I looked up the result but didn't want to say!

Last bits before finals. Antennas using Uschi van der Rosten and the lower fuselage antenna using stretched sprue
