Looks good Pikas. Just one minor detail though. The space you are seeing between the spinner and fuselage is NOT the prop shaft. The oil cooler is what you are seeing and it protrudes into the spinner itself which is sort of hollow like an upside down dinner plate.

Hello otterkins2,

the disk-shaped cover for the oil tank is 360° round-... without interruption.

Quite a 109 fanatic I see Helmut! Maybe we should compare notes. I have this whole series done from B to K.

Hello Otterkins2,

I note with interest your drawings for some time.
They are very very good ... with a tendency toward perfection.

In the Bf 109 drawing, you had for the splitting of the spinner to the oil tank but not an ideal template. Hence my remark.

But do Keep it up.

Special greetings from
Helmut Schmidt aka "mister perfect"... my daughters call me so

I always thought the scoop under the engine was the oil cooler, or is that just the radiator for the oil-cooling system ?
