Thanks guys, It really wasn't that hard, the wheel well walls had the proper shape so it was just a matter of trimming the skin back to the wheel well walls with sharp #11 blade.
Now, Attention all you Luftwaffe experts out there.
I received the decals today and the cheat sheet that came with them telling you what colors to use did not have the "K" or the "C" on it (see profile below). The "C is a no brainier and I'll use RLM04, but the "K" on the underside of the wings and lower fuselage sides I'm not so sure about. I'm thinking maybe RLM76, but it could be RLM65 or RLM78. Any help here would be appreciated.
Far from a Luftwaffe expert but given the time period, I'd go with 76 too. I agree with others about the wheel well fix... I can't even tell it was modded!
Looking great so far, and I agree about the save on the wheel wells. Wasn't Harder's 109F colored 02 and 70? If so, the question about 65 vs 76 may be valid.
Life has been getting in the way lately, but I still hope to finish this one before the deadline. In the last few days I've finished the cockpit and glued the wings on.
