Bf109E Messerschmitt-Full video build NEW Special Hobby 1/72 scale

[@Alex__S]

For anyone who's wondering: this is the Eduard 109E scaled down and re-tooled for 72nd scale.

[@willm5032]

Eduard make some insane kits. Been eyeing up some Profipack kits to treat myself with

[@taylormjolsness7480]

Yeah I built a spitfire from Eduard as well and eyeing their new zero

[@saboter123]

4:16, one micro second later, you hear the part land on the other side of the room, never to be seen again. Awesome build!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Yes, sometimes for sure that's the case! Then I need a special mining helmet head lamp 😆

[@stevenpuderbaugh821]

@@ScaleModelAircraft I have of found that a headlamp is much better for finding parts that went flying than an ordinary flashlight, no matter how bright.

[@b.vhidalgo4817]

Beautiful model. Please do more 1/72 scale planes in the future

[@doctordirk6316]

I've just bought one of these and the quality and level of detail is amazing for 1/72. The soft nature of the plastic and the grey colour reminded me of Frog kits (One for the teenagers) but with the quality of a different century.

[@francescotorri8401]

Un bellissimo stampo che mi spinge a evitare di completare il mio Hase ed invece procurarmi questa scatola 😉 Certo che oltre al perfetto stampo c'è anche una maestria non da tutti nell'assemblaggio. Bravissimo e grazie per il video.

[@IcarusIcarus76]

Superb build !!!!! I hope to see more 1/72 109/190/Spit/Hurricanes etc from a model artist like you !!!!

[@DansModelBench]

The surface detail on that model would put some of the 1:48 kits to shame! Very nicely done.

I was wondering just the other day... 🙂 Special Hobby is stepping up! 👍 Thanks for sharing this new kit!

Not only decals are Eduard Dušan, the whole kit, along with some known flaws is Eduard's rescaled 1/48th Emil. Nevertheless, very nice kit and build. 👍🏻

[@ovidiuschley3346]

The presentation of the kit and the assembling and painting the parts of the airplane are fantatastic . The final result is awesome , my friend . Thank you for sharing this great video !👍🥇🏆👏👏👏

[@bobcharles9009]

It is not the Eduard scaled down (as Alex S says), as Eduard have an Me109F or G tailfin on ALL their E models, E went straight all the way to the aerial post, F and G radiused round to it. Happy to see Special Hobby got it right. Also it appears that the nose vents on the engine cowling have got the correct shape at the back edge, NOT curved as per front edge but flat topped (as is cowling on the ENTIRE top and where the vents also are, then bending down the sides. Not once in the video was there a shot looking aft at the nose, those vents are a distinctive flared shape and not slits when viewed aft, so I think, but video didnt show it, we have at last correct nose vents on an Emil. Me109E it is almost impossible to see the rivets on the real aircraft, so applying a wash to make them all black was not a good move. Also what was that golden brown as RLM71 dark Green IS NOT GOLDEN BROWN ! The end result was a failing with the colours and wash. Photo that at scale height and place that in a real scene with photoshop, it would be miles different, you have gone for an effect and not realism; if that was Mr Aqueous RLM71 its been wrongly labelled , should have sprayed out a sample and stopped when seeing that. Probably RAF Dark Earth or similar ! I also would suggest applying glue to the actual joint, not a wash as it leaves a scarred surface despoiling the surface of this fine model. If that decal will distort to fully hug the 3D instrument panel I would be most amazed. Superb bit of model casting best hand painted or aftermarket pre printed part.

[@alessiodecarolis]

Another top notch model, this is one of my favourite versions of this great fighter (Battle of Britain vibe). Preiser some time ago made a set of relaxing Luftwaffe's pilots, a diorama with them and such a beautiful model would be perfect!

[@stressballer]

[@JedenSiedemDwa]

That was one of the greatest kits I've ever build. I must build at least one more. ;) Your result is great, and yes, it is Eduard - whole kit was designed by them. I'm still amazed how great is that kit. It is 1/48 scale details level, or even 1/32 scale sometimes. Once again - Your kit looks absolutely great. All the best for You! ;)

[@harrymarwick2529]

Great build as always Dusan 👍😎 Good to see Special Hobby are finally stepping up their game with the model kits, detail and fit of parts, unlike their older kits 👍

[@burntbybrighteyes]

I immediately thought of eduard decals when I saw them. They look very good after you’ve removed the “top layer”. Just don’t make the same mistake as I did and forget to remove one on a decal. Once you put a coat of clear on top you can’t get it off anymore and it’ll look terrible.

[@joseluiscastanorestrepo]

Is there a chance you can do a 1/32 hispano buchon messerschmitt from the film battle of Britain they do a conversion kit for the hasegawa messerschmitt bf1094 to 6.

[@fasold2164]

Sometimes I have the impression, all modelers think it's a MUST to emphasize every panel line, although it doesn't look very realistic. The second "MUST BE" is the idea, that all Bf 109 E's around 1940 were finished in green tones or here possibly in RLM Dark green 71/RLM grey 02. Since late 1940 most Bf 109's, newly built aircraft as well as machines alredy in the inventory, received the then new camouflage colors in grey tones of RLM74 Dark grey/RLM 75 Grey violet/RLM 76 Pale grey. But most modelers -for unknown reasons- persistently ignore historic facts. It's like the famous "King Tiger"-tank, the correct English translation would be Royal Tiger, but who cares abot a correct pronunciation...

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Tiger Baureihen, wild cat family, Königstiger, Leopard, Jaguars like all tanks etc. It's nothing with Royalty. Btw, This is correct camouflage with 4x photo references. I added in some replies available online ref. photo (NOT posted by me). About the rivets It's the matter of personal taste. Thanks for Your comment!! All the best! Dusan.

[@fasold2164]

@@ScaleModelAircraft I occupied myself for years with German camouflage. I would highly appreciate to see your photo references. Do you have any sources (books, online etc.) where to find them? About the name 'Königstiger': you are partially correct. Do to LEO dictionnary the correct translation would be "Bengal tiger". But 'Kingtiger' is nonetheless WRONG.

[@alfredomosquera302]

Dusan, I would really like to see the complete process. And I mean that I, at least, do prefer to see how you work on the model itself than watching two full minutes of photographs at the end.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

This is so well engineering kit that I really can build it in a few hours (with the paint job included). I wanted to show the detail in the first part of the video/review as well the critical aspects during the build and painting, if there is an issue with the fit etc. Don't get me wrong I can make longer videos with explaining something like "this is the paint brush and now I will highlight the gauge " etc. and talk about that same brush for the next 10min. But it's not my style. All the best! Dusan.

[@alfredomosquera302]

@@ScaleModelAircraft Hey Dusan! No, don't get me wrong. I don't mean something like "this is the paint brush and now I will highlight the gauge".

Sehr gelungenes Modell, ohne Frage. Auch der Basisbausatz überzeugt uneingeschränkt. Allerdings ist durch das Wash das Modell deutlich zu dunkel geraten, zumindest ist das mein Empfinden. Die Vögel der LW waren damals doch noch sehr farbenfroh, teilweise sehr bunt und vor allem in hellen Farben lackiert. Wenn auch der Krieg im Osten die Flugzeuge sehr gefordert hat, so abgeflogen sah ne Kommandeurs-Maschine nicht aus. Hier wäre weniger mehr gewesen.

[@nebelwerfer199]

Dusan another amazing video of your perfect models. One fast question. Do you find that using Mr. Hobby Aqueous for detailed paint work is better with the solvent Color leveling thinner than the acrylic thinner from Mr. Hobby? THANK YOU!!!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks for your kind words! To be honest I really can't suggest You to choose between the two. For faster working I will always go with the "smelly" ones. Primer, base coat, cammo even a light coat of gloss over in the same day... but with extra caution. Light paint build up and light coating etc. You can't do this with aqueous, the colour needs more time to cure, but it's much more pleasant for working and less toxic. For the cammo details I would say it's the same for me. Btw, I even use the leveling thinner for enamel colors. I hope this will help. All the best! Dusan.

[@comrade_duck9581]

pls help me

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Don't use water anymore to thin paints, you can use for paint brush but not so great for airbrush (warm water will work, but complicated to preserve the temperature...) Usee the regular color mix for acrylic, original Revell thinner for acrylic (Revell Aqua Color Mix). Revell color acrylic are ok for air brushing if you thin the paints properly, minimum 50/50 mix, test on some spare plastic... they are much better to paint brush. H&S Ultra is very good airbrush so first check your paint mix, then check your air pressure, maby it's to low. All the best! Dusan.
