I use that term because this is the last production version of the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the K-4. It has refinements that were differences in shape of areas some people look to to ID.<br>Need to do a P-51, but I need to perfect a natural aluminium finish before considering doing a Mustang the justice it deserves.<br>If you've read this far, thanks for reading my info-dump.

WhichOne'sPink 🇫🇮<p>Seven part cockpit jazzed up with some scratch-built seat harnesses. In 53 years, kit manufacturers have struggled to fill this little void. Tamiya offer a ridiculous decal. Other kits, photo-etched copper or brass. These are difficult to make look natural.<br>I've used copper wire and masking tape. Not perfect, but it satisfies the casual glance. This assembly is approximately 35mm long.<br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ModelAircraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ModelAircraft</span></a></p>
WhichOne'sPink 🇫🇮<p>Niche complaint.</p><p>Sometimes, kit engineers will make what should have been one part, into two or three parts under the false belief that modellers like this because it requires "more modelling".<br>I refute this.<br>Even so, this supercharger intake from Tamiya's (pretty basic) Focke-Wulf 190 D-9 kit is a good example.<br>This is always going to be two parts given the shape and the limitations of injection moulding, but Dragon's kit presents this bit as two halves, not this silliness. There'll still be seam elimination, but easier.<br>Pics.<br>Tamiya's two parts assembled, a pic of the real thing, my attempt at sorting the problem. This is a kit for intermediate modellers. Good shapes, few parts.<br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ModelAircraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ModelAircraft</span></a></p>
