Hi Everyone,
Calling this one done. It's not a bad kit. I need to build a second one to make up for my errors in the first. Anyway... here are the pictures:

























Thanks for looking! If anyone has any critique, I'm always looking to improve my game.

Gaz! Great to see you back on the boards with this one!

Was hoping to check out your build, but for some reason my browser won't show the pictures

Possibly part of the whole Photobucket debacle or Gazza's moved them. It was a good looking model though LOL not that that helps you at all Russell.

For some reason the pics have disappeared from Imageshack. I don't know why. I'll have to either reload them if I can find them, or take more.

OK, Russell... I've put new photos in the previous post. I just got a portable photo booth, so I'm still learning how to improve the lighting.

Cheers!

Chris,
Thank you!
The spinners had decals which were a little overlong which was helpful because I extended the spinners 1.5mm. It's a nice kit but needs a little love here and there. Because the Cosford 410 had most of it's panel lines puttied and sanded, I did the same with mine.

Not just the wing, my friend. The fuselage, too. A lot of the early 109G's also had the same treatment.


See... no panel lines!
