Did somebody call a cab?


Recommended Posts

I finished Eduard's 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf 108B-2 Taifun ProfiPack kit today. This was a squadron "hack" for IV/JG 51.

The camo colors are WEM enamels, and I used the kit decals which are printed by Tally Ho.

This is pretty much OOB, but I opened one canopy hatch and added a cord to it. It was (and maybe still is) on sale at Eduard's website for $14.95. DEFINATELY the nicest fifteen-dollar model I've ever built !

Thanks Sarge and Ellis !

Ellis - I found thinning them to be a little tricky. Thinned at about 2:1 (paint to thinner), I got a rough texture. Adding more thinner allowed them to spray more smoothly, but coverage required quite a few coats. I used Model Master airbrush thinner on this one, and I may try lacquer thinner the next time I use these paints.

Thanks again !
