Hi all,

Feel free to weigh in on my first model for twenty years or so!

Academy 1/48 Bf-109B built straight from the box with kit decals. Gunze acrylics.

I have learnt many things from my mistakes already and the kit was nearly thrown out the window several times - but in the end I'm happy for a first attempt.

Also my first attempt at model photography sorry! I think I may have just as much to learn about that.

Daniel, looks pretty good for having a 20 year absence. I noticed that some of the past experiance came out with the painting, nicely done. Keep it up and I will catch up with you.

Eduard's FW-190 A5 next.

I actually started it first but quickly realised I needed to start on something simpler first.

Thanks all for your kind comments.
