It's finally done

Hi guys,

Well, recently I just finished my first airplane model in about 20 years. I justs wanted to share a couple of pics. I know it has alot of problems, but at least it’s on the “finished” shelf rather than the “other” shelf! I think My next project is going to have a more simple paint job.

Here are a couple of pics (sorry for the quality)

Many of the tips and techniques I used on that model, I learned here. So thank you all for your advice! I still have a long way to go though…

Well done, Benzdoc, first attempt or otherwise. What scale is the kit? Did you use a frisket for the splotches?

AWSOME! I’m kinda fan a 109. I like your mottle(s)…How did you do that?

Well done benzdoc for such a long lay off.

Impressive, I’ve had a similiar sized ‘break’ myself…

I’ve also considered a 109 for the near future, but felt a little apprehensive because of the complex camouflage, but you’ve done a real good job!

Like some of the chaps above, I’d love to know how your camo was achieved…?

Beautiful job on the painting, Benzdoc!

That is very impressive…your splotches are fantastic

Regards, Dan

Beautiful job Benzdoc.
I love that paint job.

Mike

P.S. just lookin at your user name. are you a doctor that owns a Benz?[:D]

benz looks great here also keep up the good work Jason

very nice![tup][tup][tup]
truly a fine addition to the luftwaffe!

Very nicely done.

looks good from my end.

I think you did a very nice job. Good job on panel line definition, nice exhaust staining, don’t see any decal silvering going on. Choice of colors looks fairly accurate, camo pattern looks good. Looks like something you should be proud to display. I have to assume you are apologizing for the quality of the pictures (but they are not that bad either) and not the model.

Hey Benz,
Sweet lookin 109. First a/c model you say in about 20yrs? I too was wondering how did you do the mottles?
Over all build is very nice.
BTW are you a docotor that does check ups on benzs?
Flaps up, Mike

all i can say is “wow”!!![8D][8D][8D]
great looking emil!!
regards,

Looks really good to me. I wish I could do that well.

Nice looking Emil, benzdoc. What did you use to mask the mottle? Good job !

looks great to me Banzdoc, great camo and a real nice build too.

I’d say your are very well on your way, if not already there!

Great looking model for your first in some time.

I was also struck by the realism of the mottling. Especially the irregularity of it just under the cockpit. Very realistic! Nice weathering, too.

Be sure to post a pic of your future models.
