Re: Historical References
Found some pictures of Von Werra's 109. Did not locate any copyright info connected with these.
Von Werra had a pet Lion cub that became the Squadron mascot.
Can anyone confirm the white wing tips.

On the lion? 
Must be a griffin...
Here's a link to the Bf-109E walkaround hosted on the IPMS Stockholm site.

Re: Historical References
I've had a good search tonight, Jeff, and I can't find any photos of the wingtips so I guess the choice is yours.
I'm a mostly full-time modeller put a part-time poster....
Re: Historical References
Thanks Ian. And after a mighty search I CAN confirm the colors of the lion.

An interesting discussion thread on interior colours is here:

You can go for RLM02 or RLM66, or combinations of the two!
As I have Vallejo Air RLM02, but would have to mix RLM66, guess which I will opt for?
