Tambo's custom 1/18 ME 109E-1 of JG.53

Post by Tambo » Sun Aug 30, 2009 5:42 pm

This is my first 1/18 custom paint job. I picked a early war 109 and I still need to paint the spade on the nose and a few other little details. This paint job is the JG.53 unit from that period between the invasion of Poland and France.

Many of you have inspired me...you know who you are :D
