1/48 Hasegawa Bf-109-F4- My very first plane!

Yeah! This was my first plane build, with a bit of mixed feelings at the finish as I feel it was not as smooth as a plane finish should be.

The plane is not really Priller's but his broham, Siegfried Schnell. But the kit's under Priller's name though.

He has cooler markings anyway. ;D

The German WWII mottle camouflage can definitely be improved and there was that incident with the canopy staining which I still cannot get past.






It's a simple kit but loads of fun can be gotten from it.
There's something very zen when you are building a real-life kit, when you are focusing your skills on making everything's right and knowing it will all turn out fine in the end rather than giving yourself a headache on thinking how to mod it. I dunno, maybe I've busted my brains out trying to mod gunpla too much.

Well truthfully I'm not 100% satisfied... But in all, I've learnt quite a bit about building puay kee and oddly I am now even hungrier than ever.
