Thank you! I tried to build it as accurate as possible. It would be my pleasure if someone can get interested in the aircraft and maybe build their own one after reading.
So far I have finished most of construction work. Now let's move to painting hangar. The after part of lower wing surface of later war German fighters are usually left bare. I tried to give the bare metal more textures with different base colors. This idea is from YouTube channel Creative...
Thank you guys! Nothing can be comparable to write something after a sunny weekend afternoon.

I forgot some tubes and throttle control rods on the engine mount. My research results are showed...

The cockpit air...
