Revell 1/32 Bf 109G-6/R6
By Chris Novak
Bf 109G-6/R6 Fw. Nachtigall,
I.Gruppe JG 302, Nachtjagdkommando Helsinki, ca. May 1944
This is another G6 built for a client, therefore not as a cutaway but "in service" with opened cowlings. I used the old REVELL issue because the one-piece cowling of this kit is easier to modify for opened position than the cowling of the new HASE/REVELL kits. Anyway I did a lot of modifications to make it look like a G6: prop and spinner and ETC are parts from the REVELL G-4 kit, wheels are resin copies from the new REVELL kit, flaps are made from aluminium plus a little wiring for the DB, Decals are from an EagleCals sheet ( unfortunately I lost the yellow part of the decals so I had to paint the yellow outline of the "33" by hand with a 000 brush......!§"$%§&$/("/§%&$), motor/prop and lights are working. Here she is, enjoy
