Don is right saying that the C-2 or C-4 were upgraded to the C-7 variant not only by adding the bomb rack but also these had replaced the engines with the DB 601N, wheels, landing legs and a couple more pieces. Secondly, its werk nummer is 3100 IIRC. So it means she was completed by the Messerschmitt AG factory as the C-2 at the turn of the year 1939/1940. I agree that the camo scheme with colours RLM 70/71/02/65 and mottling 02/70/71 should be very likely. But it is 1942 and quite a doubtful she still wearing the early camo anyway. Just my two cents.
 
 
Oh, so it's just a few smaller parts. Easy-peasy. I'll knock this out overnight.
 
..... infested in my molting on the sides and tail, too much not enough. let me know please....

You have an infestation that's causing molting on your sides and tail? That sound painful.

Seriously, I think it looks pretty good. There's a mix of mottles and waves, which is unusual to me, and a couple of spots where you got some blobs but otherwise looks good.
 
I've noticed that and am going to fix it and thank you!
 
Not having a reference 'target' image, all looks good to me. I will leave the 'correctness' to those that know these patterns better then me. But, always a but, the vertical does have some fairly defined 'squiggly' shapes. Normal, I have no idea. The fuselage blotching is looking good, to me!
 
In my rule of thumb mind, factory camo tended to be mottled whereas camo applied at the unit level could have been any manner of things including squiggles, additional mottles, and solid colours.
 
The squiggly lines in the tail was purposely done as that is what my reference seem to imply, the ones that showed up on the fuselage were me testing my ability to do it, I have some blotches the I'll have to go back and work 76 in to fix. But I appreciate all inputs. Y'all are far more knowledgeable than I.
 
Bout due for an update I guess. Slow going all my fault.

Working on engine cowls and I literally can't get them to fit with an engine installed. So I ripped the left engine out and will display with the right engine open.

Cleaned up the mollting and shot a clear coat. I'm working on a mout for the right engine pipes.
 
Thanks but I think it will be ok this way. Neither set of Cowls would fit at all. Might have been one of the reasons I put it away before
