This is my first LSP finished! It is the Hasegawa 1/32 ME-109G-10, converted to a G-14/AS. I began this kit a couple of years ago, and put it aside after becoming frustrated with it. I was having difficulty getting the fuselage seams sorted out, and finally gave up on it. I actually broke the thing in half right behind the cockpit, and the split the fuselage lengthwise, then removing the cockpit for use on a future kit. One day a while back, I decided to try it again. I used a ton of CA glue to glue it all back together. A daunting task to begin with as the now broken fuselage was a mess- wish I had taken photos of it then but I didn't as I didn't want to document the failure!
Built mostly OOB, adding seatbelts, antenna, and brake lines. Painted with Tamiya acrylics, and decals from Eagle Editions. I also drilled out the kit exhausts, opened up the four small scoops on the nose, the recesses in the main gear bays, re-positioned the elevators, added bracing wires inside the radiators and oil cooler. A few other small scratchbuilt details were added like parts for the gunsight, in-cockpit fuel line, canopy release lever, etc.
Comments and constructive criticism welcomed!
