prepped the wheels for this one today, while the gloss coat dried on the other 109...simply used the G-4 supplied wheels and legs...

not so much agonising over the second colour for this one, gonna go with the RLM 83 dark green.....but establishing the camo based on what little can be seen of the forward wing area is the sticking point to date....

What can be seen seems to point to a reversed scheme of one of the main patterns used on G-14's and G-10's so gonna go with this....unless someone produces a photo from another angle it is an unknown factor...so hopefully more real soon!

have now done the panel lines on the lower wings and fuselage, added some subtle pastel work too and glossed the lower wing area...

Thanks Guys!

This aircraft has been driving me crazy as I review different aircraft to tie down the camo scheme and study the subject photo endlessly....as i said am running with the 83/75 but still think the 74/75 IS a possibility....
 
Unfortunately Mario Bellagambi died in 2001 so you cannot ask him ...but it's YOUR model, so the decision is up to you, of course, and you will end anyway with a very nice model!
Cheers
