BF110s

Looks fine!
But it's a pity you guys stop making extracted wheels. They give more "detailed" look to the whole work (IMH.

I agree, they are nice for one off low print run specials but when you've got a gazillion profiles to output for book projects the undercarriages are just a waste of time with no real use to the viewer. Plus they take up valuable printed page real estate that could be better used for words/other artwork rather than the same repeated monotonous undercarriages. Pretty much the same for props in general. They don't do nothing...

Except keep the aircraft in the air

I tend to just draw the u/c for plans and unless specified don't render them up.

Ever since I profiled the Fw-190D with its long undercarriage extended, I decided then and there that the single leg dangling in the air just looked daft.

And like Ink, I wont be doing anymore unless its called for. Props are de rigueur and IMHO profiles look as ridiculous with out them as they do with undercarriage extended.

Apologies to those that draw their profiles with undercarriages and no props.

Will confess I've just drawn some down but they were for a Stuka

I did a couple Mustangs like this. Some by plain laziness, others by customer request.

Bringing this one reluctantly back on topic for a quick post, here's a 110 that's been on the beers and it shows A dacklebauch version (no main u/c).

Good stuff!

Ok here's one for you...how do the colours match up, really a bit clueless on this scheme but had a guess and open to options.

If the markings were painted out like that, wouldn't the base colours be Luftwaffe colours, I wonder?

If this is 5F+CM, have a look at these images:
Luftwaffe colours: http://www.asisbiz.com/il2/Bf-110/Bf...r-2177-01.html

Full RAF colours (the original markings probably invisible) with RAF serial AX772: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...NAN15Dec43.jpg
Seeing as this was 1943, colours would most likely be day fighter colours (Dark Green and Ocean Grey). Belly indeed yellow.

Your yellow looks good, your green needs to be warmer though. I reckon a hue shift of -20 would do the trick. Ocean Grey would have a baby blue hue, but very desaturated and quite pale in appearance if heavily worn.
