  1. Here's one wot I made earlier - my first attempt at this kind of mottled finish using a 2mm airbrush needle. I didn't mask the cockpit frames as well as I had hoped, and although the color is apparently correct (RLM 02 Grau - but can't remember where I read this. But, I don't like it, I think it looks out of place, and I wish I had used same green as the camo spray (RLM 82 Grun), instead of the grey. I may need to apply to renew my artistic licence. FuG 212 antenna in brass from Master in Poland - I spent nearly an hour soldering the first pair together, then gave up & used cyanoacrylate glue for the rest - so they will be delicate & might be snapped off during dusting or handling. So far I have bent them accidentally, but they can be eased back in line, and so far they are all holding up ok. Cockpit detail included good seats & the rack of radar equipment (painted by an amatuer), plus seat harnesses from an Eduard brass etch set - Visible to me when I peer into the canopy 😃. Weathering is ok, but a bit heavy handed on the panel lines in places. Lots of grimy exhaust staining underside, done using Revell weathering powders, matching what can be seen in some photos of operational nightfighters which were on ops continually night after night. I touched up a few splashes of overspray and a couple of overzealous patches of camo using a brush with some RLM 75 hellgrau to hide the offending blobs and star runs. And I forgot to add the Hakenkreuzen on the rudder when I declared this project completed ... (I was still waiting for a transfer sheet to arrive in the post) - so 99.5% complete, may be booked in for maintenance & a touch up one day Skyhooks by B&Q. Anti-gravity tractor beams by fishing line (only visible in photos on websites, invisible to humans in most daylight and evening lighting conditions) Comments welcome JU-88 in its natural habitat (stars not to scale)
  2. Some nice colour footage from May 1945. Includes Bf110 G-4, Ju88 G-6 of NJG101, NJG3. JU87 D, an interesting Bf109 G-6/14 with red undercarriage legs that were normally only seen on the AS sub types Lastly Typhoons. Speaking of which why are they still wearing invasion stripes along with a Sky spinner in 1945? Maybe 2 different films? It enough to make you weep to think of what happened to all those gorgeous aircraft. 😪
  3. For my second build which i will be doing consecutively with my Ju88 s-3 to enable painting to take place at same time (to save time ) i have chosen another 88 from low down in the stash pile ,the oldish Dragon Ju88 G-6 . I understand that this can be a tricky kit to build but i feel forwarned ! I will be using the Aims decal sheet Ju88 G-6 , mistel collection. I have chosen this one as i have a built Hasegawa Morgenstern and hope to have a more typical G-6 later in the coming months. have assembled a small selection of resin I have some CMK seats and Quickboost exhausts to come. I have made use of the "less than 25% built rule" to do some pre preparation on the kit prior to the start on the 7th may. basically iv removed and cleaned up some of the larger parts , suprising how long this can take The rest of the parts Now only the main course to get on the table
