Hi Kakukk!

Looks good so far! I would reduce the "shades" of the panel lines. Also I notice that you have the same problem as me doing the bulged canopy. Very tricky this section.

Cheers,

This will be fun to see all painted

What's the problem with the canopy?
Ok i will reduce the shades of the panel lines. ( at the bottom of the fuselage's panel lines shade=dirt)

There's something odd going on with the trailing edge of the wing where it meets the fuselage. Still a nice render Balz. This aircraft was described by German pilot as "a pretty aircraft to commit suicide in". The short fuselage caused numerous control problems and it was very sluggish in the air, so it's no surprise they fobbed it off on their allies.

Hello Otter

Thanks your comment,Yes it's a pretty plane,and lot of hungarian died in it ,most of them in action (anti air guns etc).I have got a familiar man in my city who flew on Me210 in the WW2. Me210 haven't got enough armour plate this was the biggest problem.

I will correct the trailing edge

hungarian author Csaba Becze has got a book about hungarian Me210,and their pilots,with lot of report,and orginal photos.
Language hungarian and english.Very good book.

Kakukk have a look at pics of the rear section of the canopy! It's hanging over! So the light effects at the middle section and rear section of the canopy should be different.

Cheers,

Hello Kakkuk,

very nice subject and a very good template - but are you sure about the position of the fuselage nose? In your drawing the curve of the fuselage nose is above the engine cowlings whereas almost all other drawings show this curve to be hidden by the engine cowlings. I've been looking for a photo showing the Me 210 from one side in the right perspective but this was the only one i could find:

It clearly shows the curve of the nose behind the engine cowlings.

Best regards:

Björn
