Progress through Messerschmitts

[Flyingbabydoc]

Hello dear all,

As a scientist, I am all about hypotheses, testing, proofing and assessing data. So a while ago I decided to check my Progress in painting with a series of Messerschmitts Bf.109 and Bf.110, so that the variables are minimized. All in 1/72 of course.

I will post now the Pictures chronologically, from oldest to latest. I hope you will agree with me that there is indeed Progress to be seen.

As always, your comments are most welcome!!

Cheers

Alex

I can see a tremendous improvement over time. You are progressing along and improving far faster than I did when I first started building models. Keep going man, you are really showing great strides here.
