I took this Image last Sunday but haven't done anything so far. The figures are also ICM boxed by Revell
 
Thanks Dave

OK, I started

So far the pit and engine section are glued, next will be color.
Well this kit is a bit mixed: the deatil is OK but the plastic is very soft and for me this is over engineered, too many parts for things you won't see unless you display it opened. Anyway, somehow it will look like a 109 in the end.
 
Interesting, i bought an ICM MkIX spit years ago with all the resin extras to make a definitive MkIX. I gather back then they were the only ones to get the fuselage shape correct. I'm going back about 10 years and i still have the kit waiting but maybe its been bettered these days by another manufacturer ?

Click to expand...
Indeed, it has been bettered by the Eduard releases. Still, it is worth building.

OK, as I said it will look like a 109 in the end and does start looking like one, not?

but honestly I still do not like the kit but we'll find an arrangement ...

and the crew takes up shape as well

Those figures made by ICM boxed by Revell I do like
 
The figures are REALLY nice! I recognize them (ICM did copy other companies at that time). A nicer Bf 109F, if one doesn't want to spend the money on Eduard, is made by Zvezda.
