Those small boxes look amazing!, Greg! Indeed, they remind the good old days!

What a great selection Greg (@gkittinger) - looking forward to follow these as well!

Small update. I realized the Airfix kit didn't have the DF aerial, so made one from wire and spare parts.

Then, before I could get cranking on the Tamiya G, the old Frog F just muscled its way to the front of the line! I have the wings together and the fuselage together, have drilled some vents, and sanded clean to rescribe all lines. The gun troughs were a joke - I had to ream them out and drill holes to add guns, and I made a scribing template. I'm almost done with the fuselage scribing and then onto the wings...

I do have the underside of the Airfix painted, but realized I needed to fix the upper seam (and add the aerial) before I continued. I'm going to continue the Airfix G with MM paint and lacquer thinner (first time to AB with MM paint, but I have so much of it left over I wanted to try to use it and see what I get).

So much progress already, Greg.
Much more realistic to have those vents and exhausts opened up.

I've got the paint started on the G - this is going to be an Italian oversprayed and marked scheme. Need to add the blotches, then weather back the original scheme, then add the overspray of German markings.

I broke off one of the gun barrels - don't know what I was thinking adding them before paint and weathering work! I also used MM paint for the first time, thinned with lacquer thinner, for the RLM 75. Seemed to go down ok - comparable to the Tamiya paint the rest of it is painted with.

Good progress, Greg.
In modelling there seems to be always moments that extra work needs to be done.
This however makes it more special when all turns out the way you want it to be.
That scheme for the G will become great.

Nice progress on the Kittingerwerke! I shall check when I get off work later, but as far as I recall the F-4 had round wells, I am not entirely sure about the F-3. It may be that there were some differencies depending on the manufacturer. The F-1 and F-2 were squared off as most of their predecessors. (this was not to include an extra door, that was only on the late models)
