I was already sorting out my setup for the final pictures when I remembered some last chores still to be done.
But two ...

Hi Ben. The engravings of this kit are so delicate that they loose depth with the application of primer to such an extent that panellining becomes quite tricky. I would continue to prime models where this doesn't seem to be an issue but modern airliners or small scale models with such fine engravings I will try to do without. I suppose propper surface preparation and use of colors with more 'bite' than acrylics would be a good idea to avoid issues with paint adhesion.

Not priming a model with fine shallow lines is a great idea. I would guess if you use stronger lacquer based paints its not an issue. Will try this on my next model with fine lines! Awesome progress BTW looks really good!

Tamiya makes "fine surface primer" I think for this application. I find it does not level as well as the regular product though.

Almost done. Now I have to adjust the shine. Even with the use of flat clear from Mr. Hobby the paint appears too shiny. Afraid to use AK Ultra Matt as this will be as matt as matt can be and thus maybe a bit too much. Then painting the radon and mounting the exhausts.

I was cheerfully positive to finish this bird today. But the gods of modelling had other plans. After removing the canopy masks I discovered an area where paint/varnish has crept under the edge and marred the inside. Shit. But I will live with it. Then I recalled that the seals of the canopy were still to be done. A quick freehand job seemed to be a sure road to regret and disappointment. So I was in for another round of masking. Painting will follow tomorrow- hopefully.

Finish looks legit; is that a semi-gloss or satin coat? Sometimes model planes have too much of a flat or matte finish.

Cheers…legit is what we're all looking for…😉👍
I used the Mr.Hobby semi gloss rattle can just before applying the decals…then weathering on top. Was going to hit it with a flat coat but kinda thought it looked "legit" as is…😁👍

What a weird camo, but a great idea to represent it! I would never have the guts to even try.

Thanks everybody for your kind appreciation! I wanted to try this since I bought the Hobby 2000 boxing, but later on I discovered that this particular a/c was a G-1 and no other info was available, I decided then to use the Hobby Boss kit I had in my stash with the minimal modification required to calm my modeling consciousness...
I used a UNI-POSCA pen, is water based paint available from stationery and hardware stores in Italy. This is what is wrote on it that it may be useful for a search

Brilliant work Andrea. I bought a paint pen like this months ago thinking it would be ideal for Lutfwaffe squiggles. I haven't yet got round to using it, but your example shows it works brilliantly. That and your talent of course!

Great job!
But why was the Hobby Boss kit chosen?
Immediately we see a very thin fuselage.

Thanks a lot David and Denis!
To be honest, I didn't notice the thin fuselage but accuracy wasn't my goal with this build , with hypothetical code markings.
Good to know anyway, thanks for pointing it out!

Chassis painted with spray. I'll take the paint off the can and use in airbrush.
It will be easier to control the flow, mainly on the body.

Having done one of these recently, I will give you a heads up that the decals canbe a tad brittle, especially the big ones going across the doors. LOTS of softener needed. PS: beautiful seal point.

I messed up a lot with the panel line scraper, had to fix with CA and sandpaper…

Well what can I say. Was it beginners luck or a skillfull modeller ? Those decals look great. I`ve build 4 and the decals were a nightmare. Congratulations. 😊👌
