Who has not built one of these birds yet?  Again, to build a 1/48 Messerschmitt from Hasegawa's huge range of variants was relaxing and good fun. I did this one quite a while ago, but I had no time to submit an article to ARC. I hope, you like it.

The only thing I have to complain about is (again) the poor research Hasegawa has done on the paint scheme. Well, for this paricular plane, the painting instruction was stating it has had a red nose. Sure, this would look cool, but after posting this question in several forums, I came to the conclusion that a yellow nose would be a better match ;)

Believe it or not: the diorama was made in half a day, including the trees! (Thank you, Stefan :)
