I am impressed with the level of errors here. So- parts are fine if you plan to build kit with open engine but if you don't want that? Many people, as well my self, do prefer streamlined shapes of airplane and do not open various panels and some even close landing gear and put kit in flight position. If you want to make this Eduard kit with closed nose, you need to make engine anyway, reason is that exhaust pipes could be placed on engine only. And when you try to put cowling on engine- no way! I simply cut top half of engine and make somehow possibly to close cowling. As relax part of build I have assembled main wing parts, need to put etched mesh on cooling radiator and then to complete it. Final image... just see how much is this longer then it have to be. If Eduard don't make revision of this problems, this will be last Bf109E in 1/48 I take from them.
