This is the Accurate Miniatures reboxing of the Eduard kit and will be finished as Black 13 flown by Josef "Pips" Priller on D-Day.
Engine and cockpit mostly finished and fuselage ready to be closed up.

A clasic choice of subject! Following this with interest, especially your experience with "fidliness" of this kit.

Be sure to ge aware that Priller's airplane had the "lightweight" drop tank rack, not the big long traditional version. Here's a photo that should help.

Is there a way to slip the cowling on followed by the prop so they can be removed if so desired? It would be a shame to cover that up permanently! (Kind of like Monogram's B-29 interior!)

Basic construction is finished, should be getting some paint applied tomorrow.

It is a shame about not seeing much of the engine, it looked real nice.
Look forward to seeing it posted on D.Day.
