JWM Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Wow! ...Just wow!. I had in my stash two Italeri Ju88 and recently I sold them and bought Zvezda and new Revell, instead. But you shown, that this is still strong potential in this kit! Congratulations! Jerzy-Wojtek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 Wow! That exhaust weathering & that squiggly camo! Works of art, sir! Thank you very much, for your positive comment, very appreciated :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 That,s a real show stopper Bernd,outstanding paintwork especially given the scale. Thank you very much, Steve. The 1/72 scale has a lot to offer, i think. You can have a big collection of various types with great paint schemes, like your Storch, for example 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 Wow! ...Just wow!. I had in my stash two Italeri Ju88 and recently I sold them and bought Zvezda and new Revell, instead. But you shown, that this is still strong potential in this kit! Congratulations! Jerzy-Wojtek Hi Jerzy, thank you very much, beside the named flaws, you can do a nice kit from the Italeri kit. The Zvezda kit has nearly the same flaws, if you build it, have a look on the glass nose, too pointy ( some of the frames are wrong too). If you have the A-4 kit, search for an early A-4, the Zvezda kit lacks the "kink" of the rudder, started mine some years back and it stalled completely. The Zvezda G version stalled, after being converted to a Mistel component, thanks to the Italeri Mistel warhead. Italeri has re released their kit with "historic upgrades", maybe get yourself one of them. The kit itself is a very relaxing build.

GREG DESTEC Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Bernd, I totally agree with all the other commets. This is a real eyecatching model. The camo is difficult in any scale and you have rendered it perfectly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Hi Gregor, thank you very much for this nice compliment, very appreciated.

PlaStix Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 That is really stunning Bernd. Absolutely gorgeous camo and finish. I don't know anything about the old kit but from what the others are saying you've done an amazing job! Well done. Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi Bernd, great model and excellent paint and weathering job! Nice to see another aircraft build. I had already feared we had lost you to the tank corner. Cheers, Mario 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Thank you for the reply and your compliment, Mario. No worry, i am not "defected" i just mixing my hobby a bit more. Beside the M4, there is also an aircraft on the bench and will hopefully hit BM soon. Cheers Bernd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertrand71 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I love the realistic grimimess you've achieved and I know the effort you must have put in to get such a good result. I've a real soft spot for the Ju88 family, and for these older Italeri kits - you've done both proud! Thanks for your comments on my 188 earlier my friend.

dogsbody Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Just looked at this again and noticed that the pitch of the starboard right side ) propeller seems to be reversed. The paint job is fantastic by the way. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niles Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I missed this when it first was posted, just catching it now. It's terriffic - quite an eyefull - gorgeous camoflauge. You think that was a challenge to do? I can just imagine a couple of enlisted men in the staffel maintenance department on top of the wings with spray guns walking around spraying squiggles over the green - hmmm.... maybe a topic for a diorama. You'll do this again, won't you - in 1/48... or even... 1/32? Now that would be even more of an eyefull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Hi Niles, at first thank you very much for this massive compliment, very appreciated ! There will be more schemes like that, in the future. A good brush painter can do do this way better, especially in this scale, i guess. And this can be a very good idea for an diorama for a Luftwaffe airfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
