Two weeks, huh? Looks really nice. Does the kit do justice to the 1/32 scale? (Detail-wise I mean.)
I wish I could say I can get this far in two weeks...

Please note that it is a converted kit. :] It is originaly A model (as far as I remember). That is why it took his two weeks. This gentleman here is known here in Istanbul with his higher production speed then Messerschmitt Werke itself.:]

Wow!! That is really some extensive conversion you are doing. This used to be an A-1 version? How did you managed to add an extra pilot/radar operator to the fuselage? Do you have any WiP pictures previous to this one?

Impresive work. You have high developed modelling skills, that surgery is very well done.
The model looks great.

Congratulations.
