Got some paint thrown down, learned some lessons to keep an eye out for the next build. Until the final shipment arrives, this is how it will look for awhile.
I can spot several mistakes..

That is good looking work! I am such a wimpy a/b user.
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!"..

The only mistake I see is that the kit was delivered to the wrong home....
But it’s obviously in capable hands! Beautiful work on the camo!

Thanks Lyle! Looks like it is coming back to me, though the AB I am using works wonders!
Thanks Stik! The mistakes are more with me rushing certain parts of assembly (canopy was one of the parts). Going to start the next build since I have a week of waiting for the gloss to arrive.Stikpusher wrote: The only mistake I see is that the kit was delivered to the wrong home....

Not being able to settle with mistakes I made I went back and fixed them, minor things but it was bugging me. Also thanks to Stik for the reference photos this aircraft had little mottle applied to it so I used it as en excuse to add slight mottle. Restraint was needed since I was ready to go in full steam ahead and mottle away!

That looks great! I'm about to dip my toe into the world of the Luftwaffe - hoping for this kind of success.
Thanks,
