Just a few details to do before I call this one done.

Here's what I came up with, I now return to the bunker and await counter-fire.

Looks great to the uneducated eye, now to see what the Experten think of it

Very nice
Just one thing that disturbs me is the wing drop shadow on the fuel tank...should not be rounded and from the bottom disappearing???

Hello!

GFR! Weathering is superb!

The Balkenkreuz at the wing is too round. The shadow of the horizontal tail on the fuselage should be nearly parallel.

Have to agree Peter with the shadow on the fuel tank.

Fuselage Balkenkreuz has wrong dimensions.

Swastika should be 45°. Also I'm not sure if the dimensions are correct.

Basic shape: As Otter has made the base this his part. Please check the front section again. For me the ring is too large. At the top it should fit with the engine cover and shound't be as bulged. So the fuselage looks very strange to me. At evening I have time to show you some pics of this section.

Cheers,

Absolutely love the feel of this one GFR, superb job on the paint and weathering, but I think Simon is right, there is something odd about the fuselage, spine and glass shape too.

What Baron said. BUT, it does look really nice! Any chance of seeing a detail shot, something larger?

Sorry about the hard words at y last post, but all these things doesn't fit into your great work.

Cheers, Simon

Looks very good. One of the best Dora I've seen.

I agree with the above comments, and I'd add that you might want to rework the prop blade shadow. It's angled in such a way that the shadow should be slimmer I think.

Thanks for the feedback chaps, "hard" words have never bothered me as I have from time to time handed them out to others myself, so all's fair in love and profiling.

Most of the things pointed out are pretty easy fixed and mostly stem from starting this profile before Otter posted his line work.
I recall when he did I lined his against mine and noticed a few discrepancies, I obviously never got around to making the appropriate fixes, I just about have now.

I'll post another (hopefully definitive) version for you guys to have pot shots at in the next day or so.
