                        This is my build from the RD V GB.  NJG.5 Denmark 1945. Built OOB except for True Details wheels. and Eduard belts. Will definitely be the biggest in my display.  Not a fall together kit but very buildable. "And I'm glad because I have another 5 in the stash".  Comments critiques welcome. John

                        Wow, thats some nice work John. I can't believe you got the kit decals to work!? I've built one of those kits and can't imagine building 5 more. Just too big! I love the G-6 schemes though...

                        Thanks Nathan.   Other then a little silvering the decals were no problem.  I did paint the white balkenkruze on the black wing. And aftermarket swastikas

                        I personally think Dragon/Cyber Hobby make some of the nicest new kits in 1/48 these days. Have you seen their Bf 110 line? If not, you really need to check them out

                        Very nice, did you mask the canopy from scratch or use a after market kit?. I bought some liquid mask and was wondering if it could be used for this type of application masking canopy. Really nice build, Rory

                        Thanks Rory. I masked it with bare metal foil. With multi pane canopies foil is definitely the way to go if you don't have mask
