davebruce Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 Elo, I finished this a few weeks ago but haven't had a chance to post it. The kit went together quite well but I don't think it was designed to be posed in flight as it still has a flattened rear tyre! I could of probably sorted it but I'm too lazy. There seems to be an issue with the canopies on this kit as the front windscreen has a circular piece cut out of it right in the middle where it joins to the sprue tree, luckily its on the frame and is fixable but only just. I say this as I broke one in half and had to get Airfix to send me a replacement that had the exact same issue. I might of just been unlucky but anyway, here it is, its painted in Vallejo's Air war Luftwaffe set of paints. https://flic.kr/p/2kZ3Za1 https://flic.kr/p/2kZ3YHp https://flic.kr/p/2kZ3YHE https://flic.kr/p/2kZcZXy https://flic.kr/p/2kZ3YLk https://flic.kr/p/2kZbwnz https://flic.kr/p/2kZcZYf Thanks for looking, enjoy the rest of your weekend. 10

Spitfire31 Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 Very neat and proper Emil! In fact, I thought that it looked like the 1/48th kit… A small hint: a couple of dark grey blotches on the front of the exhaust sheaths would go long way toward hinting at the openings that're there on the original. 😉 Nice modelling! Kind regards, Joachim 1
jean Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Hi, beautiful kit! Well done. I have never seen photos of this plane with yellow nose and tail. Looks good though. I suspect that the small hole at the base of the canopy is for the support of the gun sight. Great show. Congrats. JR 1
Bertie McBoatface Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 That's nice and tidy. The paint is notably thin, considering how much masking a scheme like this takes. 1
