This plane belonged
to the Magyar Királyi Honvéd Légierő (Royal Hungarian Home Defence Air
Force), 1/1 Vadászszázad (Fighter squadron). The Bf-109 F series was the
replacement for the aging Re-2000 Héja fighters. This model is showing the
plane at Rossos airport in October-November 1942. At this time, this squadron
was conducting fighter-bomber and low-level attack operations under JG54
command.

This model was built
out of box using Gunze acrylics. I used the kit's German decal markings and I
sprayed on "yellow 4" on the fuselages, along with the Hungarian and
yellow ID markings.
The base was made
using railroaders' grass, painted with different shades of greens. I used a
razor to shave away the grass from selected areas and added soil using really
fine mud left behind oil drilling.
