Special Hobby 1.72 Messerschmitt Me 209V1

[Julien 7,871]

Last one for 2019. Special Hobby 1/72 Me 209V1. Not a great kit to build Canopy fit not great and getting the landing gear to fit was a struggle, The kit supplied scissor links were way over scale so I made some PE ones. While trying to fit the gear I dropped the kit breaking them off. Those PE bits went into the black hole under my model bench.  Decals were really thin and broke in many places. Paint it AK Air series RLM83 blue over black primer. Used SH resin replacement wheels.
