Stefano Leccardi Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 The only trouble is that the canopy was attached to the sprue sort of near the middle of the bubble canopy and now there a dent in it...It doesn't seem that It can be polished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefano Leccardi Posted February 18 Author Share Posted February 18 (edited) I managed to glue the fuselage halves ...resulting in a step between then (left half is lower), so that filling and sanding is required...

Wince Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Looking good. I remember when these kits were first released in 1996, they were well received being, in the UK only £2.99 each. I recently bought the double pack with the BF109G-10 (I had an original 109 from the first run and was much better or was it because I am now older?!). I also built this as the clipped winged mkv a few years ago and also made a step between the two fuselage halves! Dont see many of these being built anymore so thanks for sharing and taking me back to my earlier modelling days! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
