Me-109F "Black 7"

Here is my latest build - Me-109F "Black 7" in 1/48th scale by Zvezda.

It is straight from the box with only added seatbelts from Eduard. The model has been painted with Gunze colors.

The markings are from the Eagle Strike "Barbarossa 3", aircraft known to have been flown by

Oblt. Helmut Meckel 2/JG3 (25 air victories).

I found some real interesting pictures about this aircraft and non standard camuflage in this great book "Jagdwaffe

Vol.3/Sec.2 Barbarosa The invasion of Russia Jun-Dec1941" .
