Good start! But why seatbelts, I think you have a pilot for this bird! 😉

Hi Hajo,
True, but I dislike pilots in models! 🙂

This Kit was offered to me by my SO a while back, and its one of the first "new generation" airfix kits.
I've been looking for it for quite a long time, and this groupbuild gave me the push to open the box.
I will be depicting the Black 10 from the 2/JGr 11 station at Darmstad-Dierburg in 1945.
I didn’t find much information about this particular machine, except that it didn’t end well..
So.. here is some work:
This is my first contact with the newest Airfix, and man.. I really like them. Some sayt that panel lines are too deep, but I kind of like that.
The detail is quite nice, although the cockpit is a bit bland, so I decided to make some seatbelts.
Cockpit painted and both halves glues together.
Cheers,
IBST

update..
Fuselage and wings glued together.
There is a small gap between the wings and the fuselage and another in the underbelly.
I was expecting a perfect fit from this tool, but its still light years from old Airfix 🙂
The nose piece is completely off. I dont really understand how they miss this when designing the pieces.
Tamiya grey primer (spray decanted to my old Badger 100G)
And the paint job. Pre-shading with black and then Valejo Model Air: Light Blue RLM 76, Grey Violet RLM75 and Dark Grey Blue
And a nice coat with Future to get it ready for decals.
Cheers,
IBST
