For this start to finish build i was lucky enough to have another knocked out moggie pic to start things off.
I will be building revell\monograms 1\48 Bf 110 G2 , with aires resin nose gun bay and cover, and Kagero Top Drawings # 10 Bf 110 decals.
The kit only has the later G2 nose so for this scheme i had to get the aires set even though i wont be posing this model open, i want the wasp intact for viewing. The decals where expensive but worth it , this particular plane was a BF110G2 of S9+LP of 6\ZG1 based in France autumn 1943. This 110 had the huge wasp on the nose and a decent sized which on a broom stick cartoon witch is a perfect example of the unique art of Luftwaffe planes.
The Aires kit was a dissapointment because the main piece that i needed, the gun hood or cover for the four Mg 17s was almost so thin it was missing in small areas towards the pour block... i used a little bit of acrylic epoxy to thicken it up before i removed it.
All the other parts where very well detailed and cast. I dont plan on displaying the gun bay because i really want to display the wasp intact. We shall see what i use from the resin kit parts. This kit had many parts already loose so not all trees are complete but you get the idea.
The Kit parts seem to be well detailed as far as being very crisp, detail on exterior is nicely done , crisp panel lines, raised detail, rivet detail, and includes two drop tanks, MG 151 x 2 in a tub is included, Wgr 21s. The only downside is flashing on a lot of parts, and thick clear parts. I chose the wrong revell G2 also , they make a ZG1 wespen specially for those who want the wasp scheme, it also includes three nose options from what i understand. I got this particular version in a trade and wanted badly to build the one with witch on a broom stick scheme so here goes everything im gonna use has arrived.
