discussion Academy 1/72 Junkers Ju87 G-2

[Guest]

Started this last night and things began well in the cockpit which has some detail

not sure how much of it will show when the canopy is in place

I've run into a slight problem when putting the wings together, this molding fault could have been in a better place

but at least the wing root looks like it will be nice and snug.

Hi Wayne the office looks good and just a little work needed on the wings, but a very nice start to one of my favourate German aircraft

Built this in the group build on here last year (search for kanonen vogel) . Great little kit apart from the decals

 

[Guest]

oh the decals.... should i expect nightmares?

 

[Guest]

all primed up

 

[Guest]

Already in primer and looking sharp, wow!

 

[Guest]

yellow bits all masked of and rlm65 applied

prop spinner decal applied, i think i got away with it on the whole

 

[Guest]

Wayne great job on the spinner ,they're a major pain in 1/48 !

 

[Guest]

it was quite fiddly in 1/72 and needed plenty microsol/set

i couldnt have painted it as neat though so glad it sort of worked

 

[flyjoe180]

Wow, this is quick Wayne! That spinner looks great.

 

[Guest]

i had a flu jab thursday morning and its floored me lol

ive hardly left the house (or the bench) so things have moved along quite quickly

since thursday ive started and finished an old testors spitfire (well it did only have nine pieces)

a PM Sea Fury (not that many more to be honest)

and tonight i finished my Airfix Mosquito Mk II NF ( a favourite craft of mine)

The Stuka has had its first coat of paint on the upper surfaces, RLM 71

 

[Guest]

Wow Wayne you're cranking out some really sharp looking builds!

 

[Guest]

thanks

the Stuka has had the decals applied

hopefully the staining from the microset will go away as it dries and then i can get to weathering.

 

[mossiepilot]

Wow wayne, I look away for a moment and another one is finished.

Cracking work mate.

Tony.

 

[Guest]

thanks

i've given it some weathering and a matt finish tonight, pics will be on tomorrow.

 

[Guest]
