Oh hot damn she’s sealed-up and those precise fills are soothing me. Excellent work there! She’s coming along very nicely.

John and Kenny thank you guys! This kit went together very well and hardly any gaps. I got the glass dipped and the masks put on hope to have something to show in the next day or so.

Small update, I got the glass masked along with the open cockpit and gearbay. First the glass got sprayed Tamiya German Grey, then sprayed a coat of Alclad II Grey primer.
Nothing like primer to show all the bad spots that still need attention.

That is looking really great!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Primer on!
that means the war paint is coming soon!

Re: Eduard 1/48 Bf 109G-6/R6 Wilde Sau
This is gonna look great Clint. A neat little trick I learned while working with auto build smooth finishes is while I'm doing any body work/ smoothing out seams and all that stuff a good quick check before priming is to take an alcohol wipe (you know the little squares) and wipe the bare plastic in the area of the body work. Nine times out of ten any problem areas will show up in the temporary wet gloss that the alcohol wipe leaves behind and WALAH....I can take care of alot of problem areas before I even put primer on the model. Just a friendly and hopefully helpful bit of advice that I've learned along the way.
Re: Eduard 1/48 Bf 109G-6/R6 Wilde Sau
Thank you I will try that. I normally take a black marker and go over the area I'm working on. I did that on the top seams but I thought the leading edge looked really good and didn't take the few seconds to run the marker over it. No one to blame but myself.
