Bf109E-1 Jg54 Battle of Britain Group Build

Painted the control panel last night, installed it and closed up the fuselage. Also assembled the wings. Much of the work to convert it from an E-3 to an E-1 and repairing some surface sink holes has been done, but I still need to finish closing up the old cannon holes and re-scribe some panel lines. A test fit showed that the wing joint would not be bad, but not as good as my Spitfire.

Question: What color should the area under the leading edge slats be painted?

I made their 109K about ten years ago. It was a nice kit. The interior isn't as good as Tamaya, and the panel lines are not as crisp, but the cockpit looks plenty good with a closed cockpit and you can always get a true details resin cockpit fairly cheaply if you want to open it up.

Here's some pics of the K. as you can see you can't see muck in the cockpit.
