Nice work on the cockpit innards  :thumbsup:

You've got my brain working with this, and you've got me thinking of a twin engined version as the German equivalent of the Westland Whirlwind or maybe Grumman Skyrocket. I've a couple of AZ/KP 109 E's and I must have a 110 of some kind in the stash ?

A twin engined version would be more practical.

I have also been thinking about a single seat fighter Me 110 - shorter fuselage and wings (sorry Kit).

I glued the tail parts on today so we'll have no more heretical talk of longer fuselage or bigger tail surfaces.
I will probably be adding an additional fin under the tail.  Mainly for moving the tail wheel back and down but with the secondary purpose of adding a touch more directional stability.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I discovered that I don't have a 110 in the stash ?  :unsure:  Could have sworn I had. Never mind it's something to look out for next show I'm at.

That is looking very good  :thumbsup: ( I think my Mossiefire would have you in a dogfight though  ;)  ;D )

SHORTER? wings???  :o  :o  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Chris the Italeri Me110 in 72nd is worth looking out for..it's super cheap and good for wiffery and it's quite a nice kit too 👌
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I am using a 1/72 Italeri Me 110 G4/R3.  Fit is horrible.

That's the one I thought I had ? Although it was the nightfighter version, must have sold it on  :unsure:

Probably go for an Airfix or Eduard E so I can combine with an E 109 for a BoB era, or just later version.

Well to be honest Fred I have no idea which one mine was..was a long minute ago when I had it but I do remember it was quite good....yours I'll bet is much newer than my...I was still in my teens when I got that one  ;D
