11bee Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Anyone make a cowling conversion to turn a standard G-14 into the G-14AS variant? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leo Etgen Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hello 11 bee I am not aware of any aftermarket set that can be used to convert a 1/32 scale Bf 109 G-14 into a Bf 109 G-14/AS. Perhaps some one else can confirm if this is the case or not. Horrido! Leo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mikester Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) The Hasegawa G-10 has all the necessary parts to do a G-14/AS. Just use the small wing bulges and the ealy style main wheels. You may have to source an earlier tail wheel, the G-14/AS was observed with both style tail wheels. Leo, is correct there is no conversion set and even if there was buying a G-10 would be much, much easier. Here's one I did: Edited October 7, 2013 by The Mikester Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did any G-14's use grey with one of the late war greens? Most of the aftermarket G-14 decals seem to show the older colors being used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mikester Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) I think most were done in 74/75 but you might be able to find a few in 75/83. Also forgot to mention, if you're doing an Erla production G-14/AS the two bumps on the front of the lower cowl would not be present. If it's a Regensburg production leave them there.
