Spiros, @fiveten
My dear friend, you are a very fast builder. I just noticed this build journal, and now it's already built and in primer ! I am always amazed at your ability to build things so fast, and still keep the quality like you do. Thanks for starting another Luftwaffe project. I have a few more up my sleeve too... 😉

Nose area shrinking has stopped, so some liquefied styrene was applied over shrunk spots, now waiting to cure in order to sand everything smooth...

Thanks my friend @johnb!
Indeed, the intake's outer dimensions are massive, but its air inlet is relatively small. Though kind of weird at first glance, it all made sense when I saw a design cutaway, where the space around the air inlet was used for the guns and, at the bottom, for the nose wheel. here is the cutaway from the amazing Luft46.com site...

This is a cool project, Spiros. It’s a plane and kit that I’ve never heard of before.

Final putty session...

Getting along real nice, Spiros @fiveten
Looking forward to the paintwork

Thanks my friend @johnb!
