About product

Double-sided masks for the cockpit of the Emil in the E-3 version

A set cut to the shape of the glazing of the Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3 fighter in 1:48 scale. The abbreviation TFace in the name says that the glazing is handled from two sides, that is including the inner outlines of the frames visible through an open cockpit.

The most heavily framed cockpit of its day

The Emil has glazing that became proverbial: a windscreen with a flat pane, an angularly framed hinged hood with side panels and behind it a fixed rear section with further bulkheads. There are many frames, they are narrow and they run in several different directions, so the manual tape method is extremely slow here and one badly done edge spoils the overall impression. It is with this type in particular that pre-cut masks pay off most.

The Bf 109E-3 in 1940

The E-3 version was the form with which German fighter units entered the fighting over France and over the British Isles. It was powered by an inverted twelve-cylinder engine with direct fuel injection, thanks to which the engine did not cut out under negative g; against contemporary opponents with a carburetor that was a noticeable advantage. The armament consisted of weapons in the wing, supplemented by a pair of fuselage machine guns above the engine. The machines carried a typical divided camouflage scheme with a light underside and hard transitions on the sides of the fuselage.

When to reach for this set

  • Builders of the early versions of the Messerschmitt in 1:48
  • Models with the hood open and the cockpit visible
  • Those who want the inner frames in the interior color
  • Anyone who wants to avoid heavy framing by hand

FAQ

Its cockpit has an unusual number of narrow frames running across several planes, so covering it by hand with strips is the most laborious and the least certain here.

Yes, but it gives its full benefit above all when the hood is open and the inside of the frames is visible.

A basic form without the TFace designation, which handles only the outer side, is sold in the same size.
