AZ models 1/72 bf109 replacement open canopys

A trick I’ve often used to hide minor fit issues, is to use the kit windscreen, and only the opening section of a vac-form canopy (and maybe the rear section too, depending on which type of 109). The 109’s side-hinged affair will look fine this way, even if it would have been a poor fit in the closed position.

Some AZm boxings include both the early and the later "Erla" canopies. An open Erla can be built by cutting the rear parts off the 3-piece affair, leaving you just the windscreen section, and vice versa on the 2-piece one. Scale drawings show some differences between those winscreens. In 1:72, yeah right, tell me that they are visible :coolio:
