Reini78 Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 now really on its feet DSC_0005 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr The too small landing light cover is one of the few negativ points of this kit, filler dried more and sank in a bit, had to rework and repaint some area around the cover. Still not perfect but let it be.. DSC_0004 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reini78 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Share Posted June 15, 2020 When death strikes..... DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr My dad often wears sweaters with wider sleeves, which leads to tipped paint jars etc....this time sadly it was the model he swiped off the table....model is destroyed into bits and pieces.....no chance of repair but at least the cockpit tub is intact and can be used in the future when my dad will make a new attempt with an Iraqi Bf110. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in Lincs Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I bet he could. My mistakes are usually just wrong measurements or I glue/paint things before I should to. We live and learn, good days and bad ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 That is very sad. After all that effort. Still it is good to see he has already started again. My kit finally turned up this week after a long delay. I will be doing it as part of the BOB GB with after market decals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
