Finally finished this one today. It took a lot longer to get all the fiddly bits on than I thought it would. The pictures for the competition will have to wait as it started raining here. Hopefully it will clear up by tomorrow afternoon and I can start the "Finished" thread.

Superb!!! Looks like I have a new canidate for a Group Build in Action pic. :) Those ground level shots are perfect! And you did an amazing job on the camo. Well done!!!
 
Came out really nice Glenn. Just one small thing - the white decals of the horizontal lines stacked like a paralellogram on the flaps belong in the rounded portion of the flap where it meets the wing. These were visual indicators for the pilot to see how much the flaps were deployed.

However, the build and paintwork are stunning mate. A fine job.

That makes perfect sense Andy, and I am very upset with AeroMaster, they said to put those decals in the wrong place (see #21 #22 below) I put them in the same place on my other 109 too! :evil:

The sun never came out today so I had to try a new setup inside for taking my "Finished" pictures. The pics turned out so well I think I'll use this set-up in the future. I took a lot more pics than I could post on the "Finished" thread so I thought I'd post them here.
