ModelArt ME-109 G6

Hi guys. This is my first time to tackle Dr. Zarkov's 109. Iv'e used the parts on the bonus page(alternate fuselage markings), also installed the canopy.

I'm still nervous, need assistance x)

Do not rush as it is not the easiest plane to build. Take your time to form the skins and be very precise when installing formers to keep the fuselage straight.
I don't know what paper you used, but the larger segments might benefit from the second layer of card on the inside to help with structural strength.

They look pretty good to me
What I sometimes notice is that after I color the edges of parts to hide white color from showing up, later handling of the part can rub off the color. Looks like you might be running into the same problem (white edges are showing up on the mg grooves), unfortuantelly I still didn't find easy solution to this....

You can try scraping off a bit from the tip of a watercolor pencil.
Then moisten it up to make a paste.
Then with a needle, apply the paste to the white spots.

I've had some success in making spot corrections on white edges that suddenly appear after assembly.

After 2 days of being AWAKE(yep, sleepless) and accomplishing some killer-deadline-combos from my instructors and professors, I managed to pull some of my precious minutes(installed the nose scoop, plus a tissue Emil) :P ...
