Rodney Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'm happy to add another finished model to the display case. Here is the Eduard Bf 110E in 1/72 scale. This is the ProfiPack version with masks and photo-etch. The masks were a big help with a canopy like this. The kit itself goes together great with no problems. Mr Color paints were used for most painting, except vallejo was used to paint cockpit details. Did both pre-shading and post-shading. This was my first attempt at mottling and I'm happy with how it turned out. Light chipping was done with a silver pencil. Weathering on the exhaust and wheels was done with pigments. Decals are from the kit. While the kit decals performed well, some of the smaller decals are out of register. Onto the pics: Thanks, Rodney Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brewer Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Fantastic work, Rodney! I would've sworn that was 1/48 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicholassagan Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 God I love Eduard's kits. This is a really well done build. Nice and clean!! I agree with Jason, I was sure it was 1/48 until I read the description!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Rodney, just a super build. Flawless painting, and your weathering has that used but not abused look to it. I can see how it's easy to think that the Me 110 is 1/48 not 1/72 scale. The canopy has been polished to a high gloss, then crisply painted, and the kit details are not too thick, and out of scale. Of course your photography with more then enough depth of field creates the illusion of greater size. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I don't really have any references on the 110. Tried to find pics on the internet but most don't show the close up details we want to replicate. Rodney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
