2015 Messerschmitt Bf109 Group Build(Change coming-Read last post)

We’ll be on the lookout for you Allen!

We’ll do 'er there hogfanfs!

Glad to have you both in here fellas.

I’d say I’m ready Joe… [;)]

I’d say you’re correct ruddratt! Wow! You’re in dude!

Still on for this 1/32 G-10. I’m ready. Got the AM and paint for several 109s. Later on, perhaps a 1/32 E-4 with a “surprise” scheme. Maybe even that 1/4 Eduard Dash. I’ll just commit to the G-10 for now and then ride the waves from there!

Allen109, hogfanfs, ruddratt and panzerpilot. You all are now entered in the intro. Looking forward to your builds.

Some really nice looking choices here.

Mike, I will be interested to see how you get on with those RB sets, I have the 2 for the 109F.

Hey Mustang,

Decided to pull this oldie but goodie out of the stash for the GB. It’s an Otaki (#OT2-25-500) Bf 109G. Not sure of the year. No dates on any of the paperwork, box, or pieces. If anyone has any info on this kit, please let me know. Not familiar with Otaki at all. This is one of many I got at an estate sale!

That looks like a good one for the build. I’ve never heard of this one.

Newsflash*

Okee dokee folks. I’m going to make a swift change. I’ll be PM’ing everybody who posted here. Clemens is my co-host for this GB and I’ve tried seeing if the Staff could change my second post to his (Schattenspartans) post so he could handle the build roster and pic posting. That can’t happen so I’ve got the build roster copied and before this thing gets any more involved, I’m going to start a new thread so I can get him on board. I’ll be PM’ing all the participants to let them know about the change and to post their build contribution pics to the new thread. It’ll be a little bit of work but Hang tight gang and we’ll get this thing under way. Give me a day or so and we’ll get it all ironed out.

Oh… Alright… By the by… I’m starting with one of my beloved old MatchBox kits (37 yrs old) in 1/32. It will be a 109E3 of 3/Jg54 probably white 2 of the Balkan campaign 1940, pilot unknown.

Eagle… Otaki kits are quite nice and fairly well detailed although sparse in the pit area… Nothing a good pe set wouldnt help. They were basic kits, made from sometime in the mid 80s into the early 90s. They are related to the Arii kits and realy only failed due to poor distribution. The man who started the company (in Japan) was determined to produce the best kit possible for the modest cost, and after several start up “Bumps” he did just that. Again, a poor distribution network caused the downfall of the company, not the product.

Don’t know what happened by my post disappeared. Please add me to the list with a 1/32 ROG Gustav.

Will add it brother. Be expecting a PM shortly.

Hi all!

I’m working with Joe to get a couple of things tweaked for this group build thread. What is probably going to happen is we’re going to lock the thread so no more posts for the time being. Then I’m going to have Joe start a new thread where we’ll move the participant list to. I won’t be able to move all of the posts that have been made in this thread over to the new one, but at least it will be organized correctly so Clemens and Joe can run an awesome build and the rest of you can show of those excellent skills.

I’ll begin work on this shortly.

Thanks!

Tim

Hi all,

Click here to be routed to the new home for this group build.

Sorry, but you’ll have to repost pics of your intended kits, but it should now work the way that Mustang and SS had intended.

Thanks!

Tim
