Turkish Victory Day

 

Hello All,

This is my 1:72 Hasegawa Bf109G-6 in Finnish markings. I used decals from Airfix's new kit.  Well, especially the shark mouth did not fit perfectly, I worked on it a bit.

The kit construction was a piece of cake. 72nd scale is as good as 48 ones. I did not use putty or face any major trouble at all.

As painting; interior Gunze RLM66, undersurfaces RLM 65, Upper Tamiya Black Green and Gunze Interior green was used.  I admit that painting spinner's white part has taken longer than painting whole plane! :)

It was a nice weekend therapy for me. I liked the result...

As I always do I would like to send my regards to my brother Emad Tabsh from Lebanon...

Best Wishes from Turkey
