Ferrata Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Hi All, I'm a new member and I just thought I would post a few pictures of my latest effort. This is the first thing I've done in a couple of years after a work enforced break so be gentile with the comments. The kit started life as the Airfix 1:48 Ju87 B-2 but with a few modifications I have backdated it to a B-1 from the Legion Condor. Thanks for looking. 47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71chally Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Very nice, superb looking build. Nice to see a Condor Legion finish as well. Edited September 19, 2016 by 71chally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Coombs Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 You're being far too modest. This is fine work. I have the 1/72nd version of the B1 in the stash and would be most pleased if it turns out half as good as this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean_M Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Something to consider for your next build and it will really take a good build to the next level. Do a panel wash. Don't bother with trying to make your own AK or MIG have them ready to go. I came back to the modelling scene and thought washes were beyond me. then I did a spitfire and tried it and it was just that little bit of difference. A dark grey or brown on usual works well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dark grey or brown on usual works well Thanks for the tip. Do you mean a general wash to dirty up the model or something to emphasise the panel lines? I've used a general wash in the past but this time I wanted to show something a little cleaner as if it had just arrived in country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean_M Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I ment a very subtle was to enhance and make the panel lines pop. In another post if you look at pics of my tamaya spitfire I have kept her very clean but a careful panel was adds the difference when looking at the model.
