Bloody Biscay...1/48 Junkers Ju88C-6 KG40

Recommended Posts

and also Gunze RLM70 applied, splinter camo done

Won´t use masks from LF Models anymore, they were partly insufficient and my dad had to use some additional Tamiya tape for the upper side.

Furthermore they didn´t stick that good to the model but nevertheless tore away some paint when my dad removed the masks.

Back to the old Tamiya tap masking I think. I have found the bigger models are easier to mask. My 1/48 Do 217 was a breeze compared to my smaller planes. Still your plane is coming along nicely. I hope to get my Dornier finished in a few weeks. Depends on the canopy masking.

yes, back to Tamiya tape 😄

do you build the Revell/ProModeler kit or the ICM one?

It's the Revell/Promodeler one. The ICM one isn't released yet. It has been a good build so far other than the canopy needing to be faired in with putty. I had trouble getting the decals on, but that was my fault. I'm a little worried about the landing gear. It looks very easy to break so I'm doing that last.other than that it is a very solid model. It is a pity it doesn't have a bomb bay. I'm hoping that ICM will do one with the bomb bay and also do an Do 217K or M. Looks like they have a nightfigher planned. Once this is done my next big plane project will be a Dragon Ju 188. I saw a fantastic large RC one on YouTube the other day. It had over a 5m wing span. You should have a look at it.

the camo edges became a bit too sharp, so my dad did some additional freehand painting of the edges, but you can still see the former masked edges, hope with washing/filter it looks a bit better...
