Ramao Alves (Gaucho) has sent us some pictures of a beautiful Trop model (sorry, I couldn't resist). It's the 1/32 scale Hasegawa Bf 109 G-4 kit finished in tropicalized version and desert scheme.

Nice one Ramao

That's a kit I've always planned to build one day. You've got some really nice details in the cockpit and the brake lines look very good - as does the overspray for the field-applied unit markings. Your bird definitely looks ready for an engine change - I reckon she's burning oil, judging by the dirty exhaust stains.

Keep 'em coming!

Cool model. Good choice of colour scheme.

Very nice effect on the exhaust stains and good details for the cockpit.

Thanks for sharing
