Cyber Hobby's Bf 110 D-3 Nachtjager

[Paulw]

This is what is going on now. I have the pit almost finished just some little items that will need paint and a little more added.
So far this has been not too difficult, the seat belts are too small for me to see well even with my optivisor.









I really think I am getting spoiled for these Eduard pe interiors. I like em.

They can do good job fore sure, I guess I focus on the negative with them. Those ammo cans ain't edwards are they?

 

[Paulw]

No Bob they are the kit ones. I may have to break down and get this in 32 later.

Looks great Paul, those Eduard interior bits make it pop!

 

[sharkman]

Just saw that Cyber Hobby has released a new Trop version of this kit with new parts!

 

[Paulw]

A little update. I have the fuse sewn together and the the cage and other interior parts assembled. I am going to buy some masks for this one because I dont want to chance really screwing up the canopies. It fits real well and I have no complaints so far. I also went and built up the gun bay and one of the engines as well. More weathering is due on this one and it will go in the plane and the other I will use as a display.











I will probably put this on the side to wait until next payday so I can get the masks.

 

[moon puppy]

Paul you think you might want to try the painted decal sheets for the canopy for this? You know what I'm talking about, cut into strips and lay over canopy frames.

Good progress.

I spent the better part of yesterday getting the cowling and the gear/gear bay assembled and so far every thing was going along swimmingly until this morning when I ran into this issue. Both wings are affected and in the same spot.







this was the inside lower wing but the out side fits real well.



I tried the boiling water treatment to get the leading edge to curve back to fit this area but no go. Well, off to the closet before I really mess this up

I'm not sure I see what's wrong Paul.

The gap between the nacelle and the inner wing will not line up. The curved piece is supposed to match the wing and not be above it.
