Junkers Ju87B-2 ‘Stuka’ Scale 1/24

I would darken them as they would originally have been blacked. I use a metallic grey/black as a base rather than black black (if you know what I mean) as that would be a factory fresh look.

Thanks Alan, I'm glad you like it When you expect to start your mate ?

Well it was going to be after I finish the little build I'm on now but I just ordered a destroyer from Babylon 5 so all large builds are on hold until that arrives

Nearing the end now mate. That looks amazing

Good night to all!

I need some different things.....my bench is empty , so I will try to search a moment, and do a little travel to the city for mask tape, paints and other items.

That means I will be some days without doing nothing on that one.....

I have try a new colour on the exhausts, but.... by the moment I will leave them.......so much noise for a simple exhausts :P

Thanks!! Hope this week I can return at work again

Don't know about the "right" color Polux, but this looks fantastic!

I thought the exhaust pips were a rust colour , that's the colour both Italieri and airfix say they are but I think it's such a small thing to worry about mate

[Guest]

I think starting off with what you have would be perfect as the black paint would, in the most part be burned away by the hot exhaust pipes. Careful application of some remaining black paint would now just about do it but leave a lot of the burned metal surface as it is.

I'm with Bunkerbarge.

I have used acrylics and oils, so I will wait one or two days. Once dry maybe I will add another wash...metallic, rust or dark

Thanks

And they are both wrong

Reader of this thread will be aware that I did a small thing for Polux by sending him the rudder from an old and broken model in my loft. Today I got home from a period working abroad to find a box packed with goodies from Catalonia. In an amazingly generous gesture Polux has sent me three (yes three) 1/72 kits, completely unsolicited, for me to build or ruin in my usual way

I just wanted to say a public 'thank you' to Polux and that I'm looking forward to having a bash at them. I will of course keep everyone posted.

Cheers

Not very clear but there are one or two pictures here that you can see the exhaust stubs on:
