Well as you can see this is my first topic.I have been looking at you guys work for a couple of years now and have to say IMPRESSED.I usually do alot of 1/72(fast and fun),1/48 with resin now I am tring a 1/24 with some scratch added.I would like to add that Rodney?(p51's),Chris(SBD),Radub(109) and Chris B's(109 engine) wre all some kind of inspiration and thanks.This first picture is just the regulator slide cover 2nd one.

Well I have got the right side of the copit done and I am getting a little better with the camera.The pictures I have taken before have only been of the gun collection for the most part.So the the piece I would call the porportioning valve for the regulator I built by scratch including the lines was 14 pieces.It was after I had the fuel line in place I read some more threads and the CLEAR piece!aarrggh she stayed in place.The next one maybe.The gauge board for the regulator was a section of the other dash hacked with Waldron Japaese 1/32 dials in place looks good enough.

Another Pic.I think I am going to pass on the engine.I was going to use Brian C's fabulous job as a spring board but I think i am about ready to move on.Weathering by far is my weakest link and I still have some more to do.i ahve the Waldron buckles.The instrument panel is next it's about 50% now then the left side.

Anybody got some decent pics of the gun sight or is as the kit suggest?

 

Great build so far Javelin! And Welcome to LSP.

 

I have pix of the gunsights, but please say what version of the 109 you are building. The G-2 had a Revi C-12, and the G-6 and onwards mostly a Revi 16.

So Guys whats with the pad you see displayed so often facing the pilot?Looks to me what you show there Pete would look much Cooler :) .I think I can make that.Thanks Pete.

Hi Pete,

 

Welcome to LSP Kev. I think the pad you're referring to is from an earlier model of Revi gunsight used on F's and early G's. Revi as below.

 

Enjoying your build. B)

 

Cheers Matty

Well with ya'lls help I think I got a much better rendition of the gun sight going on.My pistires are not the greatest but you get a feel.I have not added the glass yet or the bezel on top.I will be cutting the corners on the glass and tinting one Green?sound okay or where they all smoked?
