Drawings or pics Bf 110 cockpit

[Rob Colvin]

I have an early issue of the kit and with the release coming later this month, I am considering building it. I was wondering about pics/resin for the kit. I know about the eduard and the Rutman stuff , but that is for a G not a C/D lot of changes between the two. Also wheels??? Any Resin wheels out there??

Thanks,

Rob

Thank you. I am looking for really good shots of the back seat area. How the 20's look. If there a hole in the floor? What the mid/rear seat looks like. I really thought about cheating lol. There were several 110s modded with a small tear drop under the fuselage witha 30 mil added. The center of the pit had a plate bolted over.

S!

Rob: Good luck on the back seat, but I do have some info from doing mine. Will look around--
