Very nice build. Your skill at building and finishing is wonderful.
One question - the antena - is there a retractor for it? What happens when the canopy is closed?
Love the paint job.

Another beautiful bird, Dave. Looks a little shiny, though. Like it has a thin coating of grease or oil (or blood?) on it. Maybe it's just the pics.

Wow Dave, that is a nice model, especially for 4 days. It is nicely weathered and seemingly accurate. I hate unweathered stuff so I do commend you on this model.

Great Butcher bird Dave! One of my favorite fighters from WW2. Excellent camo, and weathering. I like the ME109 next to it as well.

Did you have to do much filling of seams?
What were the paint color #'s you used?
Who were the paints by?
Are those the kit decals?
Did you use any kind of mask for the camo pattern?
Was there much flash to contend with?
What is # 22?
Will it be hung from a wire,or boxed?
Did you flatten the tires for a more realistic look?
How did you mask off the canopy?
Which brand of cement did you use?
Have the fumes gotten to you like they have to me?

Wonderful camo you did on this one Dave. Did this kit come with PE in the box?

Hi Jeep, thanks for the comment. The PE seat belt is from Lion Roar, it has enough seat belt for 3 to 4 1/48 Luftwaffe planes, and only 3 bucks a set. very good deal.

Do you have Tamiya-equivalent colors for the interior and the exterior? I have a 1/72 Butcher Bird I want to finish but I don't know the right colors for it. Thanks!
