Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4

172 Lelinx  6.4 years ago

The Messerschmitt was a staple of the Luftwaffe. This fighter-class plane is an absolute classic and certainly earned among the greats.The purpose of this model is not a complete copy, but instead is a way of representing to plane using the provided cockpit (I really wish the developers would add a cockpit block with variable styles and interiors). I tried my best to recreate to basic proportions of the plane. I personally am very curious about this particular plane. I just got a great book about influential aircraft, and the Messerschmitt is in it. I used the pictures in this book (The World’s Greatest Military Aircraft: An Illustrated History) and a few images from the web to design this. My design has semi-symmetrical primary wings, so make sure to use the trim while flying. Other than that, I hope you enjoy. I designed it with mobile users like me in mind, so those using a PC should have no problems. I think after using all those new techniques, this is my new favourite replica!
