Eduard is doing a Bf-109E?!?!?!

Lots of wallet drainers on display. I believe the Eduard Bf-109E is in 1/32 scale [:)].

I just finished reading Dr Robert Ballards book about finding the wreck of the Bismark. That 1/144 model would make a nice companion to the book. A REAL challenging build would be to do it as she is today resting on the bottom of the Atlantic. There are enough pictures and paintings in Dr Ballard’s book to permit a very accurate rendition of this mighty warrior as she sleeps.

Darwin,

I don’t know if you’ve seen this one:

It’s been done - not in 144 scale, but very nice anyway. The same guy did a sunken U-Boat diorama with a search robot submarine - very cool
