Can anyone post pics with relative close-ups of the nose area?

Until you mentioned this, I had not looked carefully at the nose. I've got this bird- my only one- but have not unpacked and displayed it yet. You inspired me to pull it out and take a gander. The green tape behind the pilot, btw, is packing tape I have not removed yet.
Yellow nose paint is thin- you can make out the underlying camo splotches just barely. Not sure if this is accurate. Perhaps the yellow was applied to the cowl in the field on occasion. I'll leave that to the 109 experts on the forum.
The thin yellow does not detract from what otherwise is a beautiful model, imho. The nose guns are molded and recessed, which looks pretty sharp for this scale.
Here are a few pics I snapped for you to consider. Hope this helps.
