James,
Congrats on crossing the finish line . Your Me-410 really looks quite good. Excellent camo paint scheme and just the right amount of weathering.

Needless to say your save was equally amazing.

My apologies for the late reply on your build James , I got side tracked .

She turned out really well same as the repair job . I have made a note and placed it in the kit box ...make sure front section ( glass is glued well )

Terri and David thankyou ! I used to be really daunted by aircraft. Seam lines and making the finish spot on but I'm glad I have got to a level (thanks to my airbrush.. ) that I'm happy with. Still need more patience and there is a lot left to learn! Onwards !!!
