BF109 G-6 1/72 Tamiya wip

Thanks! I loved the model and I had a lot of fun. It it without doubt my best model but there is a lot of room for improvement: a few decals went slightly out of place, my rescribbing is still a bit messy and the antenna is too thick. Ah, the model needs also more weathering. Next time better.

True, antenna is too thick, but painting job is very nice. Enhorabuena!😉

hey Carlos, try Ushi's rigging, it's quite forgiving and great 'to scale' too.

Forgiving unless you go for the thinnest one😉 Really nice one btw, apart from the rigging. Jealous about the mottling 🙂

Andy, Łukasz, I followed your advise and replace antenna with Uschi rigging. I love it, it is almost difficult to spot, as the real thing, and it was easier than expected.

Carlos: you've made a wonderful build "Uber-wonderful", I think the Ushi's brought the final touch, and I can't for the life of me work out how you managed to connect the vertical aerial to the main one without so much as a gob of cement showing. Sterling skills!

Thanks Andy, in really pleased but the vertical aerial placement could have been just beginner luck. It did landed perfectly on the bit of glue
