A bit of pit work on the 109. I tried something new - using Tamiya panel liner on the pit and meh - wouldn't do it again. Anyhow some progress

Not worried about the ejection pin mark on the seat as I have a pilot to sit on it

Mocked up - fit looks good

Pit looks great! The IP decals went on really well.

Thanks. They are a bit out of register. I struggle with the full panel decals as the setting solution pulls the decal and you don’t dare touch it. Nice looking decal though.

The decimals beat trying to paint them...at least for me.

If I use the kit decal I cut it into sections. It takes longer but it's easier to get all of them lined up
