1/48 scale Me 410 in-progress...

I have started to add many of the small bits on this model and also have done more weathering since the last in-progress update.

The undersurfaces as they look right now...

The nose...

And here is a better pic of the weathering done on the wing roots and the fading of the smaller decals.

This model should be done by the end of the week.

Thanks Moon Puppy!
Even though I have had some set backs during my build this has been a fun project.

It's as if it's coming-to-life more with each post. Superb work, Les.

Thanks very much Luiz!


The last of the small bits have been added and painted, later today I will be spraying on the clear flat coat and then it will have to sit and dry for a day before I can pull off the canopy masking and add the final weathering touches.

Dude your weathering never ceases to amaze me!

Thanks James and Adam!

The last of the weathering has been put on and only the landing light needs to be added and this one will be considered finished.

There might be pics of the finished model posted Sunday, Sunday is supposed to be clear weather which will make it possible to get outside and get my pics.
