Custom Winter Camouflage ME-109
 
1 Attachment(s)
After a bad day at school, I had an "AHA!" moment. So I broke out the makers and an ME-109 B&W Version from my uncle's old stack of To-Do models. An hour and a half later, I finished with a winter-style camouflaged ME-109! All I had to use was black, so I could save the others for later, but it still looks great. I plan on starting it tonight, but we'll see how things go. Anyway, here's what it looks like.

P.S. Remember, this was all done by hand with markers.

Wow, awesome! I have no ability with markers, I need a computer for color! But you have done great! I will be watching for the build pics!

By the way, this is one of my all time faverate models, the Fiddlers Green ME-109. I have built them in everything from the "large" version to rescaled 1/50 to itty bitty note cards. It is fun! Oh, and the large scale one can actually fly if weighted. They even survive a number of crashes by a then six year old!

And well done at that!

Thanks guys! I finished the fuselage, and starting the wings, but I can't post pictures till tomorrow. My camera's battery died, and it takes forever to recharge, so expect them tomorrow.

Neatly done Jarod, my friend. :)
A Winter camo is not as easy to reproduce as the observer might think, be it in armour or aircraft.

I certainly like the look of what you have achieved here with your Bf 109. :)

Kind and Respectful Regards, Uyraell.

Here's the finished ME-109. Sorry I couldn't post pictures yesterday, but I had to stay after school for make-up work. But anyway, I fixed up some of the camo on the model after finishing it, so it would look better. I think it looks really cool. Here it is

Very nicely done. Great pattern. Clean build.

Very nicely achieved Jarrod. :)

You've taken what could have been a plain-looking model and produced a very decently marked/camouflaged example.

I particularly like the patterning you've employed.

Kind and Respectful Regards Jarrod, Uyraell.

Thanks Uyraell! I've got one more B&W ME-109 and stumped on ideas. Anyone got a good idea of what I could color it?
