JG77's 109s shot down by Pattle, April '41

[robert]

Hi all,


the Bochert`s plane bears under canopy the emblem (or its remnants) of 9/JG77 - "Berliner Kindl" trademark of one Berlin`s brewery (see e.g. Barry Ketley & Mark Rolfe Luftwaffe Emblems page 36, 51).
BTW I`d like to see the photo of this "another" black 10.

Regards

Robert

Thank you! THAT was very helpful of you! So the mysterious emblem was that of the "Berliner Kindl" Brewery

Hi all

This is my impression of Uffz Fritz Bochert's "Black 10+~" of III/JG77 with the Berliner Kindl logo under the cockpit. For anyone interested, I hope this helps a little

Hi Rammjaeger,


I think the emblem
should be painted a little slantwise.

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the tip. You are right, indeed. Adittionally the Black 10 numeral had a white border. These can be easily fixed but still, the real problem is elsewhere: the attached illustration for Borchert's decals in 1/48 scale depict the trade mark logo on a blue background and not on a red one; also, with the mug not centered on it but a little lower.
I have a lot of job ahead...

I think that's more like it. What do you thin ,Robert?

Hi,

I have only remarks regarding the emblem:
- not sure if the glass had a inscription
- the blue circle around the head should have a thin green laurel`s garland

Good job!

Do you want to make more Bf109`s profiles?

Robert
