I decided it was finally time to build the E-4 on my shelf and picked Franz von Werra's plane from the Battle of Britain. It's a nice clean scheme and has an absolutely amazing story to go along with it. I watched the movie about von Werra's escape last night and finished the office up today.

Simply a wonderful and clean built and Paintjob...
The Emil is the 109 version that has the cleanest and straightest design in my opinion 👍
And you did it and present it here in a more than appropriate way... Wow!

Really nice and clean 109! Looks great and makes me to put a 109E really high on my "To-Do"List😉

eventho i do not like the emil that much due to it's weird shaped cowling this indeed is a very very sharp build, top notch.😎

quick q: what was the last coat of varnish you applied to the model? cheers.
