This got lost during the down time WIX had so I thought I would repost it.

This is the Tamiya 1/48 Fi-156 with the ESCI Ms.505 engine and cowl. The Me-109 is the trusty old Monogram kit I got at a garage sale for .50 cents. I scratch built the firewall and cockpit along with the wing root area and opened up all the panels. It was a fun little build. The diorama material I got at Hobby Lobby during one of their sales and the stand is the Tamiya Fi-156 stand that comes with the extended wheel struts. That Tamiya kit is amazing.

Glad you decided to repost this one Kelly. How did the Storch pilot figure turn out?

Nice job on this one!!
