Bf108

[JeroenPeters]

More detail added. 
 

[JeroenPeters]

Cut off the wings. I will pose them in folded position and will scratch the wingroot detail and ribs.

 

[KevinM]

I never new that was a possibility?

[Martinnfb]

It wouldn't be Jeroen if this build would not come with some interesting twist. Great touch.

First holes cut out

 

[belugawhaleman]

Interesting. I didn't know the 108 had folding wings!

[JeroenPeters]

Small progress… a few more holes to go. Then detailing and rivets.

Looks great!  How are you going to secure the folded wing to the stub?  I've run into that question on my Vindicator build.  Have to build the wing fold mechanism from scratch, and wondering how to secure the wings.

I was thinking about brass rod inserted into a glob of epoxy clay in the hollow of the wings, but never quite figured out the solution and started a new kit instead

Stay tuned. I have a solid solution

[JeroenPeters]

A little more than. I’m sanding the whole surface to get rid of that grainy texture revell is also known for. Then rescribing and rivets.

 

[JeroenPeters]

Started adding detail to the wingroots with leftover PE. 

[JeroenPeters]

Working on the cargo bay. Struggling to find good ref pics…

 

[JeroenPeters]

Filled the booth with ‘stuff’. 
The pit is now in place, as well as the engine.

 

[Martinnfb]

Interesting resource 

 

[JeroenPeters]

Those restoration video’s are amazing and a joy to watch. All you need to know about this plane.

 

[Martinnfb]

Shading on the seats brigs everything to life , beautiful .

[JeroenPeters]

Mapping out the base

 

[Wingco57]

Ahh, it’s all in the composition. Getting there.

[JeroenPeters]

Polished the wings to get rid of the grainy surface i hate and started riveting.

 

[JeroenPeters]

Wings riveted. Onto the fuselage.

Masking the canopy inside and out

 

[JeroenPeters]

Canopy masked inside and out. Rivets almost done.

[JeroenPeters]

Wanted to go with the resin wheelbay doors. Noticed a small chip missing on one, so went with the photo etch ones’ from eduard instead.
