Very cool what's with the flags on the last skin?

I might do Gallands 109 if I feel that I can bring something new, a little more accuracy or details overlooked by others. As It's been done so many times before I feel that It's important to think about it that way... Just like I did with Helmut Wicks E-4...

That's a list of the countries he had fought in, at least one other JG26 pilot had a similar marking...

Assumed so, that's pretty cool.

Love the level detail in your work.

Today I uploaded three Bf109E-4's flown by Adolf Galland. The first is Wrk.Nr 5819 which was his main aircraft from September 1940 and into 1941. This is the same aircraft that Wotan posted a couple of days ago but my version is from a later date when the wingroot camopattern had been fixed.

The other two are variations of the same aircraft which is almost as much photographed as 5819 although I can't figure out the Wrk.Nr for this one although several are known...

EDIT: Just re-upped 5819 as I realised that by the time the wingroot had been fixed, the rudder had been repainted along with the victorytally. It's fixed now... There might be changes coming to the other two as I just had a brainwave smile

EDIT 2: I've been trying to identify the aicraft in the second and third shot below. It's been photographed enough to make me certain that it must have been Gallands main aircraft for quite some time so it's hard to understand how it's Wrk.Nr wouldn't be known. I then realised that the shots confirmed to show 5819 were all taken in late November 1940 or later although Galland is known to have flown it since September 7:th.

It's also interesting to note that in early November Galland flew other aircraft for more than a week and I now believe that during that time, 5819 was taken away for an overhaul and given the new paintscheme as part of the process. So all those other photos show 5819 although in the scheme it wore during its early career. At least that's my theory!
