Here's some staining.

They were supposed to clean stainning like this off,there were standing orders to do it and instructions on how to and with what. I think they generally did as a lot of pictures of aircraft on the ground have minimal stains. Obviously if yours has just landed ,particularly if it had been in action,it could be heavily stained.

Cheers

Ray, I'm playing 'catch up' and I've just read through your thread. A great read so far and very well done with the build, it looks quite superb.

Many thanks Ron, the kit is that good it almost builds itself.

Thought I would take advantage of the gloss surface to get started with the decals, got the key ones in place just got the other incidental ones to place, then I get on with the weathering and dulling down, plus a handfull of parts to glue in place.

Thanks for looking everyone.

I can only repeat what has been said by everyone else - an outstanding build so far, real quality stuff! and it seems as though your on the home straight and not far from completion.

All the best with what is going to be a fine Me110

Cheers

Just a little update, already for the final weathering sequence now, not placed the Sharks mouth yet, it will be the very last job, as the nose is dry fitted, and popping it off will make it easier to do and weather.

So off she goes to have chipping, oil paints and a few pin washes done and the final stains and grime, will get the final pics ready when all weathered and dry.

i can't believe we have a 110 and an 88 finishing at the same time and they are both amazing. This 110 has blown me away throughout the build and the standard of finish and weathering is fantastic.

We really should think about putting a show on at some point. I wonder of John would be up for a table at the IPMSS show in Huddersfield, which is held every year at around February?

Interesting thought.

Many thanks for the kind words Trey and Richard, still a bit to go with the old gal as she still looks a bit too clean.
