Description



I built 21st Century Toys' 1/32 scale Bf 109 G-14 straight from the box (used the original decals as well – except the swastika which was not included on the original decal sheet) with just a few additional aftermarket products (Barracuda Studios wheels, RB Production wheel well photoetched set and some scratch-build antennas).

I used super glue for gluing and filling (found it essential for this kind of plastic) and Mr Color (acrylics) for painting.

Despite generally simplified details and panel lines inaccuracies this was a very straightforward and enjoyable build.
