After an aborted start (anyone remember my Miles Master Fighter project?), I finally decided on a Fujimi 1/72 bf-110 (and probably a bf-109). A second aborted start, when I realised that I really need a PE kit & decals, and so I change subject to a Monogram1/48 Spit Mk.II. Then I was encouraged by Tom to go back to the bf-110, found suitable decals and PE and so a third start! Now the build is finally underway. Not sure about the second aircraft, the bf-109, better assign that to the maybe catagory. These builds are taking long than I anticipated!
Actually, this has been a really inspirational GB. There have been so many excellent models being built here, and so fast. I just hope my bf-110 meets muster when finally completed.
Well, the cockpit is part finished. I'm building the instrument panel by using Humbrol 21 (gloss black). On that I will place the PE (painted RLM02), and then use some Clearfix (for the first time ever in this way) to represent 'glass'. Of course, I'm also building a few other kits at the same time, but I've learnt my lesson. Yep, yesterday, giving the scuttle top of the Komet a second coat, I thought it looked too light, then realised I had used the Humbrol 164 from my MiG 15 build, rather than RLM66! Oh well, at least it now looks OK. When the cockpit looks more presentable, I'll post some pictures (there is a lot of PE to be shaped, painted and glued).
