Eduard 1/48 BF110

Post by Paul »

This is the weekend edition of the kit and from what ive seen so far it looks fine, bit of flash here and there but the details are crisp and well defined.

Image

Bit of progress on the front part of the cockpit.

Image

And a start on the rear section.

Right bit of a jump in progress due to a very stressful couple of days.

Got it altogether now and this is where im up too, kit went together with no major dramas and little filler needed here and there but as said nothing major.

Image

Sprayed the rlm 75 and 76 as the paint scheme showed not too happy withh the wings although its not shown as a sharp edged i think its needs to be a little sharper. I think i need to break out the white tack to sharpen up those edges.

Im fairly happy with the mottling too but with appreciate some honest opinions if you can, BOB where are you lol.

Wasnt planning on doing any more tonight but with bugger all on the tv i thought i would go back, got the front antenna sorted and the top wire antenna done too using some cotton thread. The fornt sections were a little tricky to do , but by using superglue and with some tweezers its not too bad
