      It was nearly as bad as when i did my He111. That was mental. But it came out great so i'm looking forward to this one. But i have to say that when it comes to bigger models i think i'm going to see if eduard do some masks for them

        Aww!!! I don't know if that's a word but I'm simply blown away with your patience! I always use masks because I'm kinda restricted to time and cut in too deep through Tamiya masking tape and leave marks in the plastic. Take care, Jeff

          LOL yep i can just imagine doing the masking for a He 111...not.

          Ive never used any of the Eduard masks but know many that do and they are regarded very highly. Just something on the Stuka as a plane, im not at all clued up on them, but did see a programme that included them the other day....the dives those pilots done and then pulling out of the dive....man, the G force must have been incredible!!!! All the best buddy, Martin :-)

            Well that's it ready for painting. Only things missing are the cannons, exhausts, prop, aerial and landing light cover. I had to fill in the massive hole in the wing for the landing light. Just filled it with some putty and will paint it silver. No point in trying to add detail to it.

                Nice work! They are evil looking but as one RAF pilot said "They were the easiest german aircraft to shoot down if you got behind them,serves them right". I think he was a bit annoyed at them bombing our shipping at the time!

                  Hi Al

                  Your doin' I fine job with the Stuka. The masking looks good, all the more remarkable because the kit is 1/72 (had to go back to check myself!)

                  Very well done, this one looks like its gonna be a real little cracker!

                  All the best.

                  Paul

                              Just did some test measuring of the decals for the underwing chevrons. Just as well i checked. They are massively out of scale compared to where they are supposed to be on the wing. I'm now trying to mask off the chevrons so i can paint them in. Time for square eyes again lol
