Bf110, Airfix, 1/72

fancied doing a plane next so pulled this from the stash
picked it up in GeeDees Models in Nottingham for a quid a few years ago since it had the canopy missing.....quick email to Airfix HQ and one arrived gratis
you get two different schemes, didnt want to do the normal 2 tone green so have gone for the so called  'Tunisian scheme' which has a sandy coloured upper and a pale blue lower
this has caused a few problems lol,......know what the RLM numbers are.....know what Humbrol say use.....you try converting into Vallejo Air which is my prefered paint......nightmare!...having to go with something close
pretty sure i have some swastikas in the decal stash cos as normal the sheet dosnt have any

Have you tried HERE Paul?

I have Swastikas in various scales if you need some too.

yes i have tried there (it is a few years out of date by the way) and other places too....its just one of those things

Looks like a fun build, Paul.

ive just looked it up, this was 'new tool' back in 1959!! seriously old skool!.............i was wondering why it was lacking in detail lol

I'm joining the audience for this

A real 'vintage' kit build. 

just to show im still working on this.......definatly showing its age, been through the filler and sanding cycle a few times

cant do anything major for a few days til i get some paint, but i think its going to take that long to mask the canopy!

Great progress, Paul. Looks ready for the paint shop.

Looks fillertastic, great work.

Looks like you're turning a wore out kit into something really nice.

Love the lines, very classic and stylish. Seems odd saying that about a warplane, lol.

Nice work so far.
