Looks like Kotare just announced a Bf109K-4.  If i previously missed it sorry for the double post.  Sign me up for one or two, or three....

It was announced about 9 months ago.  There are sprue shots on Basefook.  It seems to have big raised panels on the lower wing surfaces that leave me scratching my head, having looked at a good number of real Bf 109s and never seen anything like them.

Are  the areas adjacent to the raised panels on the lower wing surface

places for inserts ? In does look odd.

Nope. This is a dedicated K-4, not a modular G/K kit.  All K-4s had the same wing, so no need for inserts.

What they tried and failed to portrait are under wing access panels and taping of the wing tip gaps. In both cases everything should be flush.

First I am seeing this, but it only appears in this photo as the near camera side is stepped, not the away side. Also there's a raised strip at the upper wing tip joint that's not on the opposite wing? Weird.

 

Maybe it's a manufacturing flaw? I do hope they fix that before it comes out. I don't want to taking a sanding stick to my brand new 100 dollar airplane kit.

Easy or not.

I agree, but where on earth are you going to get a new Kotare kit for only $100?

I preorded the new Spitfire directly from them for $100.  I'll do the same with this.

Tried to order, says it can't figure out shipping rates to me and try again later.  I already preorded the Spitfire so hopefully the fix it soon so I can order.
