                        Rather pleased?  You should be ecstatic.  That is a nice lookin’ bird.

                        The -410 looks good! I have to getr me one of those soon!

                        By the way, if you use brake fluid, it strips the paint off quickly and easily, and doesn't cloud the canopy.

                        grenadier: Not just astounding....inspiring as I look to begin an He111. Which paints did you use. The scheme came out wonderful. You certainly turned that kit into a winner.

                        Remarkable work, i honestly can't tell that there is anything wrong with the canopy. gotta love those german planes and the paint schemes.

                        Though I don't spend as much time here as I once did, I'm still producing albiet at a much slower rate. Just finished up the Pro Modeler 1/48th 410. Wonderful kit with the exception of the problematic canopy construction. Boy did I screw it up!! Ended up having to strip some paint off of the airframe, and in the process I managed to cloud the canopy (stripper seeped under the mask). With the exception of the not so stellar canopy, I'm still rather pleased. I don't do alot of WWII kits so let me know some pointers...Thanks!
