Hello friends! Well, it’s been a while since I’ve sat down at the bench. Here is my latest build. The shark mouth and unit numbers are decals, the swiss neutral markings are airbrushed. Thank you for looking!

Very nicely done. I do like those Swiss markings and i don’t normally go for shark’s mouth but i like that one.

I’ve been researching doing a Swiss 109. Mopar, you beat me to the punch. Really nicely done. I still have a couple of Bf-109F’s in my stash that could end up in Swiss markings. The Swiss were very aggressive rergarding their neutrality! They would shoot you down if you didn’t follow their commands to land your airplane. Very well done, Mopar. Thanks for sharing. Whose kit?

Very nicely done, and very unusual. Not often that someone models the neutrals in a war!

I agree that the build really looks great, and it’s neat to see some of the “different” versions shark’s mouths out there.

Really nice looking build. The Swiss markings are really striking.

Thanks Bish. It’s a nice break from the typical RLM splinter livery!

This is the Tamiya E4 kit which is always a pleasure to build.

Thank you for your kind words!

Thank you sir! They definitely make a statement.

I agree. Looks nice in the overall RLM 70. Kora does a big selection of Swiss 109 decals in 72nd, a lot of them for E-3’s. I might have to grab a set and a Tamiya kit.
