Hi, I would like to introduce you to probably the coolest accent piece for any Luftwaffe collection I have ever seen, this was hand built and painted by a friend on mine and I just had to share this with you all.
As you can see by the pictures the workman ship is incredible.
He is working on a web site and these will eventually be sold as kits you can assemble and paint yourself or have him complete it for you.
This is the prototype and there is a lot more to come.
We are hoping for some feedback and an idea on interest for this type of display piece.
Below is a description in the builders own words.
"The ultimate in Luftwaffe deco to accent any collection, private or otherwise. With the aid of original Factory drawings, Parts catalogues and pictures, I managed to Hand-build a 40% scale Me 109-G aircraft profile. I designed it in a modular format so that even a small area can feature some parts and paid attention to the important details. Of course, some ‘artistic license’ was exercised in the task for practical reasons.
I decided on a simple camouflage scheme and painted on most of the usual markings, weathered and stressed the paint to a ‘combat look’ and used about 2500 rivets for maximum effect. The landing leg is adjustable to set in any position or can be left out altogether to simulate flight.
I smartened up and created moulds of the parts so I can replicate these and am also currently working on a 40% scale complete Fieseler V1 flying bomb to fill out my shop. I hope you enjoy."
