As said before, I don't like those little wheels on the rear...
Well, the kit is a "what-if" ; no prototype existed. I've decided that the engineers modified the aircraft giving her a front wheel !
So, new scratch work...

Thank you for the info my friend!

Thank you !

The rams of the kit were nice but really thin; so thin that it's impossible to remove them out of the sprue without broking them. They are replaced with parts made from scratch.
Revell/Dragon missiles assembled.
Cockpit will be open; so I have to cut the canopy into three parts.
And finally I have detailed a little bit the cockpit consoles...

I have used putty for the half fuselages and the air intake. But the "gun bay" don't fit correctly with that one ; so I've decided to remove them (putty again...) but to replace with an heavy armament underwings (parts coming from the Me 109G from AZ).

Missiles of the kit will be replace by two missiles from the Revell/Dragon Me P1101

Assembling of the two half fuselages was not easy at all... As you can see with the hel of the arrows, some jointures are good but some aren't at all... Lot of putty will be neede I think...
Instrument panel of the kit replaced by a full scratch.

Simply that I don't like that aircraft without a front wheel...
