Good to see such a nice kit of an early 109, and that Wingsy are still shipping despite the war. I look forward to seeing more from them! Thanks for the review!
Thanks Jason. I do like your builds, especially the voice over. You seem to have a knack of explaining all the important points without droning on for too long. Hmm, I promised myself not to buy any more kits this year until the Airfix Avro Anson comes out but that does look good.
Hi! Love your videos... and love me some 109's! I picked up each of Wingsy's 109 offerings, and indeed am very impressed... Re: your question about the top & bottom fuselage seams... the way I handle this with 109's that works really well... i just sand a very slight bevel in the mating surfaces along the aft fuselage, and then once you join the fuselage halves, you end up with a very nice looking seam. Just a few passes of a sanding stick will do... you have nothing to fill, and nothing to scribe. Just be sparing with the extra thin so you don't fill the seam with styrene goop.
Amazing kit there. I have the 1/48 Eduard BF-109 E7 Tropical Weekend Edition that I was about to start, but now after watching this build video of the new Wingsy, I feel I should toss mine into the waste basket. I need to locate one these instead.
Nicely done. Looks a good kit. I get that making the cockpit a separate sub-assembly makes it easier to build, but surely it makes the cockpit walls about a foot thick in scale thereby shrinking the rest of the cockpit.
That antenna cable looks crisp too - can you point to any tutorials on how to build it like that? Not just the wire being used but also the other parts like that coil attached to the post being created?
How do you mask the anti exhaust-stain stripe? Tape doesn't really want to stick, because of the exhaust pipes which push the tape up, so I can't get a clean seal.
Nice kit, but Tamiya's G-6 Me-109 comes with an engine too! Wingsy kits are a bit pricey at ¥ 7,000 . Eduard is too fidgety for me .... nice job on the kit !
It's a similar process to making printed circuit boards. A light sensitive etch resist is applied and selectively blocked in the pattern you need and then acid removes the metal where there isn't etch resist.
Unfortunately there isn't much need for kits for beginners. I'm 59yrs old and my generation built things, most of the young ones today spend their time in front of a TV or computer, nor do they know or appreciate history. Doesn't bode well for the future I'm afraid.
Not sure what the problem is with a obviously top notch kit. I'm a big fan of the Bf 109, and accurate, high quality kits are hard to come by. In contrast the P-51D is available in every imaginable scale, and quality from poor to great.

fantastic looking weathering - subtle but definitely there. Looks more realistic than a lot of models out there in my opinion.
SOLD. Great work, end result looks museum worthy.

Thank you for a great posting Jason
Nice video...led me to order two 109s! They're fantastic kits.
love the colour scheme 👌
Just got this kit for Father’s Day. Looking forward to it
Very impressive work. I enjoyed the show.
Great job Jason and always enjoy your videos.
Une belle maquette et original !! Bravo
Fabulous craftsmanship, enough said.

The 109 fuselage seam line I bevel the plastic edge along that corner both parts, easier than scribing and no worries about making sure it's straight
Nice work Jason, this looks like an excellent kit.
I am not a plane type a guy, however you inspire me to try building the few aircraft kits I got in my stash. Wery nice work as always!
Thanks for that! 👍

109's werent coloured grey inside the cockpit till the E7 variant. the were RLM 02 till then.

Lovely build Jason! 👏
I've been looking at this set for a long time too.
Looks like a solid kit, love the Condor scheme as well👍
With the top fuselage seam line, I just don't glue it. You then get a perfect line. It holds together fine from the tail.
Great build! 👍👍👍
Fantastic build, fantastic kit....🥰😍😎

Superb 😎 What a fantastic finish👍🍺 I need to build my Eduard Emils before trying a wingsy.
Great job👍

Beautiful looking kit. I have to find a distributor here in the states.
очень красиво!
Sure wish they made larger scale kits.
Could you link the riveter please
Awesome build...Looks a cracking kit, definaletly on my wish list now...Ok I have to ask, what went 'kerching' and distracted you? 🤣
Haha I tried to edit that and realized I missed it, a piece of wood on the chair, I nearly ended up on the floor!
@@ChampionScaleModelling Haaa Haaa...That's class Mate...Keep up the great work, love your work :)

Perhaps you weren't aware Clint Eastwood's first Westerns were shot in Spain?
Ooh! Nice! I wonder if they're in the States yet?
Nice kit, but Tamiya's G-6 Me-109 comes with an engine too! Wingsy kits are a bit pricey at ¥ 7,000 . Eduard is too fidgety for me .... nice job on the kit !
Who is the manufacturer of this model?
Great video Jason - I guess Wingsy have a website? Looks like a great kit
Yes link in the description 👍
@@ChampionScaleModelling cheers - bough myself a kit 😉💋
How do they make Photo etch frames?
That’s a something for a RUclips search!

Very nicely done great job as usual ! What do you use or how do you achieve the insulator on your antenna?
i dont know what this chap uses but i use a dab of micro crystal clear (pva) applied with a tooth pick, works extremely well for me.
@@steriskyline4470 Thanks for the tip cheers from Canada
What do you use to get the brown off your nose, and how much stock do you have in this company?
It’s a good kit

Decal as in Dee cal.

What I've been watching, it seems that Ukrainian model companies tend to be the best in the world no matter the subject matter.
hmm not too sure on that one, to be brutally honest, the majority of them are quite poorly engineered, ICM has some right stinkers.
£40 for a 1/48 109? Nah.
Good video. Although it's just Ukraine. Not "The Ukraine". I don't where this incorrect phrase started but it's nonsense.
It’s ‘I don’t know where’ by the way 🥴
@@ChampionScaleModelling Lol yeah. I seem to drop words often. Brain damage from all the explosions probably.
