Did I speak too soon on praising Dragon Wing Tech's Bf 109 kit? It seems so. This shows the folly of in-box reviews in general, what looks good on the sprue doesn't always hold true when it comes to actually putting the kit together.
There is some fit problems with the nose panels that only came to light once construction was well underway. My advice to those currently building the kit is to dry fit the nose and front cockpit parts as it looks like the manufacturer has miscalculated the way the parts come together. It simply isn't possible to fit the nose panels together without making some adjustments to the internal parts first. Easy to do when dry fitting but a problem when parts are already cemented in place.
Oh well, it's certainly not Tamiya Spitfire quality but then again it was only about a third of the price. Get what you pay for? I'd say so.
