1:48 Bf-109G (Bf-109G-2, Bf-109G-6, Bf-109G-10, Bf-109G-14) exhaust

Reskit 1:48 exhausts for the Messerschmitt Bf-109G (G-2, G-6, G-10, G-14)

This is not an aircraft kit, but a resin, 3D-printed detail accessory. The set contains exhaust stacks for the late versions of the German Messerschmitt Bf-109G fighter, specifically the G-2, G-6, G-10 and G-14 variants. The replacement exhausts have a faithful shape and finely rendered hollow openings of the kind that are hard to achieve on plastic parts.

The real subject

The Bf-109G was the most widespread version of the legendary German fighter of the Second World War. The rows of exhaust stubs along the sides of the engine are a conspicuous and often sooted feature that calls for careful execution and a color transition on a model.

Building and painting tips

Wash the parts free of print resin residue and separate them from the print supports. They are bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate); sand with respiratory protection. Paint the exhausts in a combination of metallic and rusty brown shades and add pigments for a burnt and sooty effect; ideally fit them before closing the fuselage.

Who the set is for

• Modelers building the late versions of the Bf-109G in 1:48 scale
• Anyone interested in faithful exhausts with hollow openings
• Builders used to working with resin

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package.
