No they didn't. It would be a payment of "easy come, easy go" type. But I have reached a good income.
 
Thank you Mates..

Then I applied the Humbrol 69 and got the semi-gloss yellow I wanted to see.

What are those two blisters forward-inboard of the two radiator housings?

I was secretly hoping you'd do a yellow-nose Emil, the Bf109 was practically designed for yellow-nose schemes, I think the scheme displayed on the current box art (grey with the red band around the nose) is a bit underwhelming
 
As memo serves, these two bulges were coverings of the main wing bolts ( pivots ) that fixed main wing stringers ( wings ) to the fuselage.

And undoubtedly yellow nose and rudder of Bf109 caused the better appearance of the fighter.

Thank you ..

Because I had to handle the model working on a few areas I wrapped a canvas band around the rear part of the fuselage.Thanks to that I avoided getting it dirty. The top engine cowling has been attached.

THX Paul.

But I have had to paint these trim tabs firtly. I masked trailing edges at the top and bottom. Then using a brush painted trim tabs red.
