My latest model, Hans-Joachim Marseilles Bf 109F-4, JG 27, North Africa, February 1942. Pretty pleased with this one, even if the carpet monster did eat some small parts!

Calling this one done, Hasegawa 1/48 Hawker Typhoon, not my best work but many lessons learned.

Ready for the shelf. Really wanted to add this somewhat unusual 109 scheme to the collection. I find the maple leaf as an insignia to be striking. The late war parts bin look is also appealing.

Basic camo is done. Started brush painting the Ocean Grey areas with thin acrylics to get the look I want.

After the sawn off DAC, I think I'll continue the less trodden paths.
Thus up next, the early war Nakajima Ki-27b, aka IJA Type 97 Fighter, aka 'Nate'.
