Very tidy mate! Are those bulges on the upper wings gun feed covers, or to do with the flap actuators? I'm not that well up on Brewster aircraft I'm afraid.
 
Still "fighting" against the correct model dimensions and shapes.The first Bf109F of Italieri and the second is the MasterCraft one.Both of 1/72scale.Here some pics.These white areas are the places where I had to cut a piece open and add some plastic in order to get a correct shape or dimension.

I am amazed, Wojtek. Maybe this is why I don't do plastic scale ? All the
'extras' you have to go through to get an accurate model is mind boggling.
I'm certain the end result will be one you can be very proud of. Good job !!

Thank you so much Charles and Jan.:D

Here some more shots with corrections to the wing.In the first pic the parts just from a box and in the last one almost finished parts with the new engraved panel lines.In the rest of pics are shown a few corrections including the new radiators.Corrections included making a bigger wingspan both upper and lower halves ( for lower part I used a piece of the mould frame with the firm name - MasterCraft), making a new shape of wheel bays and its inner structure ( partially so far),cutting off both slats and making new places for open ones, cutting off the inner and outer flaps, shaping of wingtips,making correct flaps, correcting the additional fuel tank mount,engravering.
