Daniel KlinkHi Erik and Jos, happy to join and thanks or your warm welcome 👍
I choose Grislwaski because he was kind of a excentric rebel like Graf..
And theirschemes were different and interesting.

Daniel KlinkThe fit of the cockpit between the fuselage halves causesthe only little issue
General fit is really quiet good 👍
21 October 2020, 22:52
Patrick HagelsteinWelcome Daniel! That cockpit looks great and indeed, the kit shows nice recessed and crisp panel lines. Bring it on! 🙂
22 October 2020, 02:01
Daniel KlinkThank you patrick and Björn
Yap the surface details are really fine
22 October 2020, 21:29
Daniel KlinkHm, nearly the same gap on the other side? 🙁
Did I forgot something?
23 October 2020, 15:49
Patrick HagelsteinIn hindsight, would it have worked to mount a spreader (like a piece of sprue) under the cockpit floor in that area? That way the fuselage could be bulged out ever so slightly to meet up with the aft wing roots. But then again..... in hindsight..... 🙁
23 October 2020, 15:55
Daniel KlinkYap could have helped, but not without sanding the wingroot where the fit is nearly perfect.
Anyway this is no major issue but like you I already had the joy to build one of Tamiyas newer kits ( The Zero) and got there g6 in my stash too.
Following your progress it seems to be a joy to build too.
Why did i choose Short run again? 🙂
23 October 2020, 16:00
Łukasz GlińskiSo now I can say: yeah, I knew it 😄
Nope, I didn't, haven't build any AZ's 109 yet 😄
23 October 2020, 17:21
Daniel KlinkYep i should have known better too..
1,5 Years ago 🙂 Now i know why this gap looked so familiar to me 🙂

Daniel KlinkHi Stefan Welcome Mate..
I saw you are also in with a Az 109? Be careful with the wing roots 🙂
23 October 2020, 18:48
Stefan SchachtHi Daniel, yes, I think it is the same basic kit and I will take care of it 🙂 Cheers Stefan

Michael PhillipsLooks like I am late on this one as well. Looking great so far, now the fun starts!

Daniel KlinkWelcome Chris, Cliff, Roland and Michael...Thanks mates andtake your seats 👍
25 October 2020, 21:42
Daniel KlinkWoohoo, thank you all so much gentlemen for your overwhelming, numerous praise fo this small wellknown bird 👍
Especially in these times it gives one a warm and encouraging kick 🙂
28 October 2020, 15:56
Michael HickeyYou're almost there with this one Daniel, and nice desert Eagle as well.👍
29 October 2020, 05:15
Łukasz GlińskiThat was a real quick-build, but aren't you missing one cross on the top left wing?
Or is it a feature?😉
29 October 2020, 08:20
Daniel KlinkThank you Patrick, very nice 👍
@Michael thank you Sir! The G2 was my first go last summer on a AZ 109!
The kit is not very accurate and good in general but it is not as bad as judged by many reviewers.
Compared to the later Tamiya release it is, but they set a new benchmark with their G6
@ Lukasz it is not ready at all now🙂Exhausts painting, weathering small parts blending etc..
And yes the backboard cross crumbled to dust and i am searching my stash for replacement.
No feature! Graf and Grislawski did not care much about TDV but even they would not have gone that far🙂
29 October 2020, 10:17
Daniel Klinkthank you all so much guys, much appreciated but it is not finished yet..🙂
The cross for the left wing is on arrival from a friend of mine and there is still some weathering and
wiring to do 🙂
The Masts got their color and the exhausts too.

Patrick HagelsteinLooks great so far! Aren't you worried about applying a decal over an already weathered wing?
1 November 2020, 15:48
Daniel KlinkThank you Olivier, Christian, Clifford and Stefan, much appreciated.. 👍
@patrick no i am confident because the decals are the best part of the kit..
Smooth and thin...
While waiting for the decal, alfred got him an armchair from the local Ikea 🙂
2 November 2020, 16:09
Daniel KlinkMan, that was a heavy Thunderstorm..
The whole place is soaking wet and muddy .. Got to wait for the maintenance troops..
And what is that dude with the Lawn mower doing?
2 November 2020, 20:14
Sergej IHahah, what a wonderful setup! Oberstleutnant seems to be enjoying himself 😄 👍
2 November 2020, 20:22
Daniel KlinkThank you Christian and Sergej. Very glad that you like the progress so far👍
@sergej yes he enjoys the longer break due to maintenance delay????
3 November 2020, 00:02
Daniel KlinkI think about replacing the FuG loop with a wire..
The kit part looks a bit clumsy
3 November 2020, 00:26
Łukasz GlińskiFor sure thinner loop would look better, but I wouldn't risk it myself to damage the camo & weathering.
3 November 2020, 08:35
Daniel KlinkThank you Clifford, Guillaume, Lukasz, James, Patrick and Rui, really glad you like it..
Still waiting fo the decal but decided to expand the meeting to 4 resp 5 incl the dog🙂
4 November 2020, 20:30
Daniel KlinkHi Mates, thank you for your nice and warm words and your encouraging statements👍
It was a pleasure for me being a part of this GB and declare my Bf 109 completed 🙂
28 November 2020, 19:21
Łukasz GlińskiI see the reinforcements have arrived and no crosses are missing now. Lovely dio, the dog in particular 👍
28 November 2020, 22:41
Daniel KlinkThank you Clifford Spanjaard and Lukasz 👍
Yap all crosses added, and now they toss for the honor who will pull the plane out of that mess.🙂
29 November 2020, 16:19
Patrick HagelsteinJust saw I haven't responded yet.... But great build, Daniel!!! 👍 I have to say that extra cross makes ALL the difference! 😄 👍
30 November 2020, 22:20
Daniel KlinkFinally you made it here Patrick????
Yap that cross changes everything🙂
Thank you mate👍
