  1. Rick (@rickschad) that is awesome. Love the look of this - great paint job. A very nice Scmitt! 😀

  2. Great job on this 109! Looks really good with the engine all opened up.

  3. Amazing. I just finished a different Tamiya 109 kit and was going to post it tomorrow. But yours puts mine to shame. I have a long way to go to reach this level. Well done.

  4. Awesome job, Rick!
    Really wonderful!
    Congratulations!

  5. It may well be a good kit, Rick, but it takes skill to get it to look as good as this.

  6. Excellent result, Rick @rickschad
    Great paintwork and the amount of details with the engine cover openened is really impressive.

  7. It's not too late to solve that silvering on the upper wing crosses. Slice them up with a #11 blade, then flood with decal setting solution. That will get rid of the air (air under the decal is the cause of the silvering)Flood it till it really settles in, then let it set. Problem solved and you can't see any of the slices.

  8. Wow, what an incredible build. Really nice, congrats on the achievement!

  9. Cracker! Painted spinner spiral too. Well done.
