Are you doing this version with the 'fake' painted glass nose? I've always thought that was very sneaky,and a very nasty surprise!

Hey Steve,

I have doubt about version... In my opinion more beautifull is with glass at nose, but I'm not shure what version I can build with glass nose from this model?

I know C-6 is made from A variants of Ju-88.

----------------------

from wiki:

[h=3]"Ju 88C[/h]Zerstörer, fighter-bomber and night fighter, based on A-series, but with sheet metal nose."

--------------------------------------

Any oppinion?

Roman looking forward to seeing your work on this. The Dragon kits are nice but this molding has some gap issues

 

[stona]

Roman sorry form late reply. I'm away from home and internet access is variable. I thought the C-6 was a solid nose but I'm away from my books and can't check!

Whatever you do I'm sure it will be a cracker.

Cheers

I was ask Steve about version of this aircraft, because for my eyes glass nose is mutch pritier, and I have read that C-6 is developt from A series of that aircraft.

My question for Steve was witch version I can do with this model but with glass nose and of course it will be correct.

Cheers

Roman have a look at this link. Then scroll down to the Ju88 C1 (about half way down). This version has the glass nose

Thanks Allyne,that's what I was thinking of. Armament in the nose camouflaged with a painted on "glass" nose. I'm sure a few people got a very unpleasant surprise unwittingly flying in front of that.

Cheers

thx

found it...

I will do this one...

I agree with steve, this one Zeroster was very, very big surprise to many pilots from opponent side...

Great idea from Luftwaffe to paint noses like that. I can only emagin how big surprise was when from "glass" start thunder and rain of lead )

Cheers

Nice choice Roman and no doubt you will do it justice

 

[Guest]

I have decided that I will postpone this build, because I'm at home on my free days only 8 days more

And must go back in Syria.

When I came back from Syria I will start build this beauty.

Now must finished Bf-109 and I will do one more model...

Cheers
