There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Thanks guys, however there is an awful lot of work still to do. The basic paintkit is quite nice as a base, but I want to add much more additional details.
Most probably it won't be as detailed as the paintwork TonyG's did on "Seemann", but I think things like for instance the rudders and ailerons desperately need some additional details.
For those who don't know the original aircraft. Several aicrafts (if not all) from 7./JG53 had large comic like paintings on the fuselage during the period they were stationed on Comiso at Sicily Italy, in June 1943. These painting were made by the technician Uffz. Heinz Zach.

Quicksand any chance you post a picture from your model?

This is called progress....
Still an almost brand new Messerschmitt, but I have quite some progress.
The Gustav must have been a very vulnerable aicrafts as I spend most of this evening putting labels with "Nicht anfassen" (don't hold here), "Nür hier betreten" (Only walk this side), "Nicht betreten" (Do not walk here) and "Vorsicht" (Caution) on this model.
The Flight Replica model is real eye candy, therefore it is a pleasure to make this texture. Tomorrow I will start the weathering.

That is a real sweet looking 109 Huub.
And even better yet because it's JG53 and the plane number I had when flying online in IL2. All it needs is vonSpinmeister under the canopy. :costumes: BTW... where can this 109 be gotten from? Freeware or payware?
With you permission, I'd like to save a couple of your screenshots for wallpapers.
BTW again... I have met Gottfried Dulias of 3/JG 53(Pik As Geschwader) Budapest March 1945. He is a fine gentleman and a friend. Hopefully I'll see him again this year at MAAM's WWII Weekend, and get his picture. His 109G-14/AS was 6 also, but yellow 6 and no number after the white band, the rudder wing tips and front 1/3 of the spinner were yellow also.

Its Payware. About $45 USD but oh soo worth it! You get the Flight Replica F, G and K series. The only FR '109 variants you won't get are the Avia S-199. But even still its a HUGE set and well worth the cash.

Gary,
You can also purchase the Gustav package which is just over 21 Euroos (28.41 US Dollars). This will give you 12 different models.

There is a "donationware" G6/R6 as well. The money made with this model goes to the DARE foundation, which excavates aircrafts which chrashed in the Netherlands during WW-II. This one is nearly 12 Euroos (15.80 US Dollars)
http://secure.simmarket.com/flight-replicas-donationware-messerschmitt-bf-109g6.phtml
I have made the texture so that they fit both the G6 in the package as the donationware G6/R6. ALthough the pictures prove different many sources say the Gustavs form 7./JG53 were mounted with gun pods.
When you want the screenies in original 1400 x 900 bmp format just give me a PM.

Huub
