Thank you John, I have to say I'm quite happy with the result too. I should have pointed the camera a bit down to show the lap-belts too, they add a lot to the cockpit. Perhaps when the shoulderbelts gets installed. .

Erik my friend, @airbum
It has been too long since I have commented on any of your builds. I have had the opportunity to stop by and look at the well thought out and researched work you have been doing. I want you to know that I don't always get a chance to comment, but I do make regular visits to see how your 109 "nursery" projects are progressing.

I must say that I am particularly impressed with this build. The extra steps you have gone to ensure the accuracy is noteworthy, and speaks volumes about your dedication to the 109 aircraft in general. The Voltmeter instrument addition is something that 99.5 percent of all 109 "Experten" wouldn't have known about, yet you covered this perfectly. I have come to know you as my friend who knows all about the 109. Should I ever have a question that is anything 109 related, you know who I will be reaching out to... 🙂

These latest updates show that you are quickly approaching the paint shop. I can't wait to see what is coming up next. This build is looking fantastic, but to be fair, all of your models look this way.

Oh that looks nice! I hope to see this one. I’m following this too. This whole build (though I’ve only seen it for the past 20 minutes) has been interesting, and I cannot wait for the end result. The cockpit looks nice, and so does your engine to fuselage surgery.

(As usual) You can never have too many 1109s, my friend @airbum!

How nice to have your model primed, my friend @airbum!
Looks nice and uniform, will look perfect after your minor remedial actions!
Looking forward to yet another 109 coming along!

It went on very well, Erik.
Those minor corrections should be easy doable with your expertise.

And painted it is!

The color it is supposed to have is either “Barracks Grey” or “Sad Grey”

I have been trying to get the correct color, and some may say that they were “Legion Condor” colored. As they were manufactured a bit after the war, I think not. The one preserved is some sort of light aircraft Grey. . .

And in my last batch of paint from the worlds biggest aircraft carrier (England), there was a paint called RAF Light Aircraft Grey.

Now it will have to be very dry as it is a uniform color and to handle it I will have to touch the paint, so once again it will be a long wait for the next post – feel free to comment on the color or whatever you feel like to comment on. Thanks for watching.

Coming along nice, Erik. I’m thinking of buying this set.
