Hasegawa 1/48: Bf 109 K-4

[Guest]

Hi guys!!!

Her comes my new Bf 109 K-4 in 1/48 from Hasegawa. It's a good kit with nice Details. Built out of box. Colors from Revell (Aqua Colors).
With the K-4 (and also the Fw 190 D and the Ta 152), the german aircraft industry was able to catch up with the allied piston engine types in terms of performance. However, the war situation and the scarcity of raw materials and other resources did not allow any significant production figures. In addition, the absence of experienced pilots weighed particularly hard.

My model shows a K-4 ("Kurfürst" = electoral prince) of the II./JG 3, March 1945.

Cheers
Stefan

Thanks, mates!!!
I have modified my "Kurfürst" and eliminated some mistakes. The modeling scene in Germany looks very accurate at 109's ... even with F-104, F-4, MiG and Fw 190 ...... and woe, you did not do anything right !!!
Modified is: wheel status indicator, changed color of the antenna socket on the back of the fuselage, antenna (FuG 25) on the bottom of the fuselage offset to the right side.
Yeah, Germany is really home of the "Rivet Counters".........

Cheers
Stefan
