ICM Bf 109F-4Z/Trop kit No 48105

Eddie Bosano-Andrews
I really didn't enjoy building this kit at all and at one point considered abandoning it altogether.

This is the first ICM kit I've built and I'm unlikely to purchase another.

1. Instructions were not always clear resulting in a lot of guess work.
2. The quality of the plastic I thought was poor, extremely soft and a lot of flash
3. Parts not numbered on the sprue, needing constant referral to the number map on the instructions.
4. While some parts were very detailed others were very basic !
5. There are no fixing or anchor points, so halves had to be lined up by eye. Some parts just plain didn't fit. Lots of gaps left so much more filler than usual.

I'm still not entirely happy with the result but for the moment it will do.
