I'll start with same collection of images that were actually gathered over several months of "search and find."

Wow, I bet this would be really cool to see assembled! Also, what were the sources for your images?

Note the reddish-brown stripes on the wingtips and the solid black Balkenkreuz on the underside. The antenna wire has snapped off.

And now, photos of the assembly. The wing blisters are from Revell, and the 1:48 scale figures are from Preiser...
All that remains now is the weathering and signs of wear, the proper base, and the MG 131 armament.
Then followed a long break, and I have had the project back on my desk since the day before yesterday.
The next step involves the MG131 weapons, wear and tear, dirt, and the figures (GIs).

As always, from an online image archive and/or a German forum. But this time, "SAVE" wasn't working, and the process kept getting interrupted.

My model isn't quite finished yet; it needs a few corrections, weathering, dirt removal, and some color adjustments. It's still missing MG 131s, a different base, the figures, and so on...
If I may add something to your research:
AFAIK WNr. 230 785 is a well know a/c from the type Bf 109G-6/R2 - a photo-recce version, manufactured at WNF - check here for more (go to Suchen - Suchen nach Werknummer and paste the WNr.):
The ugly cut in the fuselage was done because of the Rb 50/30 camera, to take it out, not because of the MW50 water/methanol thank as shown in your schematics, which in this version was moved slightly to the back. Here is a scheme of the R2 version:
All schemes are from Eduard's special issue about Bf 109G-6, Part II.
The belly camera opening-frame is visible in one of the photos you posted above:
And one more thing: the bigger wing bulges are for the bigger tires 660x190. Those are clearly identifiable in the photos.
I believe you used the standard 660x160 wheel and tires from the kit, but I might be wrong.
Cheers!
