Italeri 1/72 BoB Stuka


Recommended Posts

Here is my rendition of the 1/72 Revell / Italeri Ju87B-2 Stuka built out of the box as part of my intent to build more BoB aricraft this year. It's a nice easy build and as I don't have much information on the Stuka, I have no clue as to whether the kit is accurate. I must admit I don't care that much either; it looks good.

Finish is my usual brush painted Xtracrylix on top (RLM70 schwartzgrun and- *ahem* - RAF dark green masquerading as RLM71). Accuracy be damned! I can actually see the colour demarkation this time. Underside is Revell Aqua Hellblau. Anyhoo, I enjoyed building it, but didn't the Stuka have lots of delicate sticky out bits! Definitely a challenge for sausage fingers here.

It's a very clean build as I needed to finish it sharpish, so it's as delivered to 9./StG1 according to the Almark instructions.
