While manufacturing of the G-10 (Green 7) continues in Erla Maschinenwerk, on the other hand another G-10 manufacturing started in Wiener Neustadt (WNF) plants. This will be finished with the markings of G-10 /U4/R2 "Black 12".
I started with the cockpit as usual. My choice is MDC cockpit set. Components are painted to RLM66.

And now the turn is for the wings.
Hasegawa offers standart G6 wings for G10 with large wheel bulges on wing surface. But it needs to arrange wheel bay for the large one. With some sanding and adding some modification I tried to upgrade this area as much as possible , I think.

Wings glued.
Horizontal tails are from Master details as usual.

Painting started
First step is black primer from Tamiya.
Then I applied Alclad lacquers with different tones for the lower surfaces of the wings.
After the wings, I have painted the fuselage to RLM 84 which is a primer very similar to RAF sky green.
Cowling and horizontal stabs painted to RLM76.

That last "reference picture"...is that a captured -109 or a captured -51 in the background...any idea?

This is the recce version of the G-10, (R2) and I believe that the pilot, a corporal, flew it to allied territory and surrendered.
According to "Airfoil" #3, (1985) which I have, this is werke # 770269, 5F- black 12, of 2 NAG 14, which flew into Furth with others and called it a war.

Hi,

Superb paint, very interesting post.

Some more updates..
It s getting closer to the finish line.
This became very long term project meaninglessly, I have no ideaa about the reason, may be a kind of cyclical passion leak.
