1/72 Airfix bf-109 E7 Trop - Walrus - 05-01-2012

Hi Chaps
This was a dog of a kit, horrible raised surface detail, appalling fit for canopy and wings...just terrible...but also fun to wrestle with. I did it 'in-flight', a first for me. Used ProbBlur, which I think looks OK.
Also made a free wee stand out of wire...it works fine and cost nothing ;)
My partner used her skills to mock up an 'in-flight' photo, just for a laugh.
So, not the best 109 you'll ever see, but a great test of my limited modelling skills. It looks good flying over the other on my shelves.
Cheers

Very nice Walrus.

I really like the last two pictures.

Thanks for sharing!

Last pic is quite good, shows how much better any model would look in black and white with a background. Nice job, you even got the wings pointing at the right direction :)
