Spitsfire and Messaschnitzel

Post by Tzulscha »

Two ancient comic kits from my misspent youth.

Flight Leftenant Rif Raf and His Spitsfire Mk V.
Image
With the addition of a few more fiddly bits...
Image

A little colour... (and a dashing pilot!) Two Fingers Up Jerry!
Image

A nice bit of scenery....aaand VIOLA! (as they say. something like that anyway.)
Image
Dash it all! A few pings to the wingtip already!



OberLeutnant Wiener Moldey ist der geshtunkener bad guy!
Image

LOT'S of little fiddly bits to make this thing look like a 109. (Kit was heavily based on the spitsfire.... makes me wonder if I could make a Dewo...)
Image

Mit shcars on der cheeks from Heidelberg yet!
Image

Finally! Ve ist off to jagd der Shniper62! 8)
Image

A fun build that WILL be accompanying me to the next RatCon, if they ever have one...

I was a bit unclear... I mean I don't give a sh..t what I'm bombing - as long as I fly with my friends.
I'm a happy bomber

If you'd like a copy of the Messaschnitzel kit, you can get it here
http://www.squadron.com/

or a decently supplied local hobby shop.


If you want a copy of Rot Eins, you pay me great flipping wodgers of cash and I build you one.
Both planes have custom markings and paint.

One other possibility, the Rats have a Con and you win one in a raffle.
That last is a bit of a longshot I know... :wink:

I thought that these 2 were the same as the other 2 you posted about in the rots eins thread. There not? So there are 4 different models? i'm confused...

There are only two model KITS.

The Spitfire was obviously the first kit since the 109 shares a number of components with it. Prop, gears, cockpit, lower fuselage...
It took a fair amount of work to make it look good.
the 109 kit has almost none of the detail of the spit.

Image

Image

Since a lot of the bits were the same, I had to add MORE bits to make them different.

Image

LOT'S of bits...
Image

The spit was much easier.
Image

A little paint
Image
Image

See? It's easy! :lol:

I could, if you really want one, but it's gonna be about a year before I even have time....
I have 3 sailing ship models in for restoration, a 32 Lincoln for repair,a B-52 for an old crew dog, a 1922 Indy car from scratch and a great Lakes freighter hull for a museum...


Damn, will I ever get to do my own stuff again?
