Great Joel, looking forward to seeing that F-4

Thank you folks for the nice comments.

How's the fit it looks pretty good but what's your impression?

Thank you for the kind words. In response to the colors questions: The yelow is Tamiya XF-3 Flat yellow. I preshade over a withe coat of XF-2 flat white. The preshade is a mix of XF-1 flat black and XF-64 Red brown, after the yellow coat I post shade with the same mix of preshade but a way thinner, I would say 1/20 so I build up the shades progressively, this is the same process for the whole aircraft. The cockpit is Tamiya XF-63 German Grey, I post shade with paler colors mixing XF-63 and XF-2 flat white. That gives the volume and lights I need to make the cockpit interior more illuminate

They are perfectly molded and details are excellent. Markings representing aircraft White 12 flown by Staffelkapitan Hans Langer in central Italy.

Hi John, thank you for checking in. I painted them while they were still in the sprue and then install them with super glue and hold them in place bacause they are a bit stiffer than PE. At the beginning they were a bit stiff and I was worried about cracking the paint but they went pretty well. They are stiffer where buckles and reinforcements go, but I guess that was a feature of the real thing. The whole belt with buckles are moulded together, but the detail is excellent, they molded the linen texture and even the stitches are molded at the buckles attachment. Four sets to build fou

I have a FW190 Dora as well but yet I need to do further research and decide the markings.
