Nice Keith , really nice.Your skills go up.
But a few words for the future....As my memo serves aillerons,the rudder and elevators of "short-nose" Wurgers were covered with canvas.So the silver aluminium colour could be seen on metal covered surfaces only.Taking this into consideration you have exaggerated with the weathering slighty. But the effect on the prop blades looks very good.

But As I said I like the model.A very good job.

So Paul, I see your "secret" plan to make Bf 110 most popular airplane on the forum is slowly working...
Great work on the Fw 190 Keith.

Thanks, I could not tell the color, I was thinking about using a brown tone instead of black. I will try thinning my black more.
