There you go.
I knew as soon as Steve was back with us, he'd be yer man to help with WW2 aircraft questions.

Top man Steve, thanks.

Thanks guys, I finished the 109 today! :thumb2:

First a panel-wash and Matt-finish was added...

I added some navigation lights too:
base color (1), Micro Kristal Klear added (2), more or less glossy effect (3)...

Then I unmasked the canopy and added the loose parts.
I had a bad moment and damaged the aerial-mast, exhaust, air-intake and one wheel :poop::tongue-out3:...
But I was able to fix those things :thumb2:.

I made an antenna wire from thin 'sewing thread'.
I did an effort to simulate those ... detail 'things' left and right. These were made from layers of glue-drops...

And here the model is finished - I will add some more pictures in the Completed Section (link) ...

Lovely job on this, especially the arial cable, the insulators really lift it to another level....
