Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. Any feedback, please. Does anything look strange? Just let me know. I am still very much a learner with 1:48th scale aircraft. I usually do 1:35th scale armour.

I think the "sponge method" wear and tear looks a little too much?

The radio antenna is made from AK Interactive 1/48 rigging, very thin copper wire wound up to look like a spring (a bit too thick I think, but I could not get thinner copper wire), then a 2 mm hole punch on thin copper sheet (moulded into a cone over a rounded tooth pick) and finally super glue dabbed on rigging (4-5 times top and bottom) until it was big enough (painted in AK cremeweiss colour). The entry into fuselage was made from spare ABER M50 Super Sherman 35034 brass metal set - small part just look like the right shape ... LOL pure guess 🙂

I thought the weathering was done right - especially around the cockpit area where it would see a lot of it from the opening and closing.

The radio antenna looks impressive!

Great work, paint job and weathering!👍🏻

Thank you CaptGPF, Vincent and J35J for your kind words of encouragement. Very much appreciated ☺️

Mr James
Agree with all above. The aerial is a great touch.

about the weathering, it is at the end a personal choice, some people like models like new, some like they have been years under harsh conditions.... yours look really good to me. but at the end, it is your own opinion what counts 😉
the antenna is fantastic, i need to copy that when i do my 109

Thank you Spanjaard for your kind words. The small cone on the antenna I made from copper sheet that I molded over a tooth pick was a little hard to control. I've seen another modeller use a small rod which he molded into a cone, I thank that may be easier and I'll try that next time.
