[fadugleman]

The instructions say i need "dope", what do you use or where do you purchase your "dope" ?

[bellsland]

@fadugleman... hello you should be able to purchase ur dope from a craft shop / model shop ... or even online

Hi!

nice job!

I have made a bf-109 to but I haven't painted it yet. What paint did you use?

Could I use diluted enamel?

thanx

[bellsland]

@driess1000 hi i used acrylic paint ... i would think enamel paint would be heavy if u want to fly

[MrMisterblitz]

Great vid.

[grndmasterflashpants]

Have you flown your Me109 yet? I've just finished mine and it flies not so well. Beautiful paint job and modelling you've done there. Are you going to post video of them flying?

[GerbilEssences]

So, er does it fly with the kit wood?

[bellsland]

@GerbilEssences ........ yes mate, flies great.. its balsa so very light

[Thejirka64]

Perfect planes!!!!

[bellsland]

hi it didnt take me long to build .... over a weekend per-plane the time was in the painting

[Denntti2]

how long does it take to build one of those my spitfire it coming and i would just like to know how long it would take.

[MrSBChevy]

yeah i had the me 109. i only built the fuselage n wings, never did have time to finish it, ended up getting busted and thrown away. one day , ill have the time, and a big ass table to complete ALL the projects i set out to do.

[HereKittyKittee]

i just bought one of the bf 109, but dont have any glue or paint yet....what would u recommend? nice job btw

[bellsland]

@HereKittyKittee ...... you should get balsawood glue ...... cellulose dope ... then use cellulose dope thinner to cover the tissue.... acrylic paints

[HereKittyKittee]

@bellsland thanks buddy! ill need all the luck i can get to not screw this first one up

[bellsland]

hi its a 16" wing span

[THEFUZZ5445]

Is the wingspan on the me109 16" or 24", better yet what is the scale? (there is 2 different scale models, 1/32 and 3/4, I am probably going to get the 3/4 One......and was wondering because they looked small in the pictures.....)

[bellsland]

i use balsa wood glue.............cellulose dope...... cellulose dope thinner over the tissue .... acrylic paints

[TheFlight17]

what type of glue do you use and what type of paint do you use?
