**** DONE: Bf 110 C Stab II./ZG76, Maj.Erich Groth - Me/ Fw Group Build.

Yup, I agree with that.

In some ways they get the engineering spot on - the wheel bays wing frame of the FW190's for example - I really enjoyed building that.

In others you are entirely correct (engine bays/bearers etc). I've got their Bf110-G4 so I'm watching your build with a degree of trepidation

Good work and I'm sure it'll be rewarding to finish (even if the old Anglo-Saxon vernacular gets an airing during the build)

cheers mate, agree with you and hope once all the fiddly bits are done i'll start having fun building this kit again as its to much like hard work at the minute !

Lots of parts = Value for Money

Don't consider it hard work Karl, consider you are getting 'more bang for your buck'

You know, like happy hour at the pub.



You came through - well done!8)

Cheers

Peter

Great work Karl!

A wedge of plastic card would take care of the gap in the nose no worries...

thanks Evan, seems full of harderned glue from when it pulled apart, except thevery end that a bit of filler will soon sort out

You're doing a great job Karl and just love all those ammo canisters at the back. What are those little black thingummyjigs just behind the pilots bulkhead?

thanks Vic.
the boxes attached to the bulkhead are the radio equipment and the round things are ammo drums for the 20mm's

Might be frustrating Karl, but still doing a good job mate...

 

[Njaco]

Looks good regardless of the small parts!

thanks Wayne/Chris.
think i've got past the worst of it now !

 

[javlin]

It all looks good Karl .A very good modeler on a ship forum said he looks at each assembly as a model by itself.This was his way of working through 40 or so cannons before he could progress to the next phase.Try to forget time and enjoy what is before you learn,appreciate and become patient(is that the right word).In the last six months these aspects have been showing themselves to me more and more.

[A4K]

Keep at it Karl, you're doing great!

Great advice Kevin!

Nice work Karl, hopefully now it'll be less fiddly for a bit! You could even build it out of order, and build non-fiddly things and fiddly things in alternating order.
