Thanks for the comments!
After finishing three other models I have returned to this poor old Bf 110 and am getting close to getting this completed too.
A lot of the small breakable bits have been glued on the underside and after doing so I can't help but wonder how this older aircraft design was able to even catch up to the bombers with all of its various antenna causing so much drag.
The model must now be handled with extreme care to avoid breaking anything off...and I thought it was a pain before to avoid breaking off the pitot tube during all the painting and weathering steps! I had so many close calls but never actually broke it.
The canopy was removed and all the masking was taken off so I could glue a few interior parts to the inside of the canopy and also to glue the weapons in the rear of the cockpit. After the flat clear coat is sprayed on the canopy will be the last thing attached to the model.
After all the tiny parts that were just glued on the model are dry I will tack on the flame dampeners to work out where I will need to airbrush the exhaust stains and get that done, after that the flame dampeners and drop tanks can be attached.
For all the little problems I had with this kit I am starting to like it now, its too bad the size problems with the engine cowls and spinners exist because otherwise this is a great looking representation of the Bf 110G-4. :salute
