Airfix Bf 109 F-4 Starter Set (1/72) | Full Build, 3D Printed Upgrades & Weathering

The Airfix 1/72 scale Messerschmitt Bf 109 F-4 Starter Set is a modern, beginner-friendly kit — but how does it hold up as a complete build?

In this full build video, I take the Airfix Bf 109 F-4 from box to finished model, painting it in a simple Eastern Front RLM 70 / RLM 65 scheme and finishing it with enamel pin washes and oil paint weathering.

While the kit builds well and offers a solid foundation, it does lack some cockpit detail and smaller parts, so I add a 3D printed instrument panel to enhance the interior. (The instrument panel used in this build is available on my Cults3D page. (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/...)

This video acts as a complete overview of the project, following on from my earlier inbox review and three-part build series, and wraps up my thoughts on whether this Starter Set is worth picking up.
