Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

I have recoloured my 108 into a ecards version.

Cheers JTF

Re: Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

Looks good , bur I would like to suggest to make the logo on the wings a little bit bigger.

Re: Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

I like it! Thanks
Could you make the logo a bit bigger and more in the middle of the wing? Maybe work some dark grey into it somewhere to break up the white. Maybe just a thick line going down each side of the fuselage and on each wing - nothing fancy needed! I appreciate it though and really like it!

Re: Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

Thanks for the tips.

Here's an idea.

Colour the fuselage a light gray/duck egg blue on the underside and some sort of dark gray/green camo on the upper surfaces.

Large logo on the upper wing surface with the web address on the underside.

The fuselage logo on the side remains the same as does the logo with the knife at the front.

The whole lot will be finished with black and orange "invasion strips".

How does that sound?

Cheers JTF

I've dropped the "invasion strips".

At the current size it won't print to A4 so'll re-work it over the weekend, add some basic instuctions and email a pdf at the start of next week.

Re: Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

Sounds good! Where are the invasion stripes? Arent those usually lines on the wings?

Re: Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun

They would normally go round the fuselage and wings but I left them off so as not to distract from the rest of the colour scheme.

I will put a small white box behind the decals so they stand out more a bit like your avatar.
