Sturmovik Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Hello all! Here are some photos of my recently completed model, Revell's Ju 88A-1 in 1:32. It was a fight from start to finish, some pieces, such as the rudder pedals, didn't live to see the end of the project. I take all that to my own poor construction methods. I won't build another 32nd bomber again. 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Law Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Nice build. Good to see a BOB Ju 88. I wish ICM would do a 1/48 version. It's the only one missing from there catalog. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redleader Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Kudos for finishing the fight so well! It IS a big fooka. Your splinter pattern looks great too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to thank Tamiya tape for the sharpness of the splintern camouflage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is not the main BOB Ju88. You need this Ju 88 A-1 for that. In fact I do have the A-1 conversion set. But I'm lazy and would like the real kit.

Tail-Dragon Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Regarding a 1/48 JU-88A-1 - as it happens, that was one of my quests. I found that the Special Hobby's JU-88D-5 kit (a reboxed ICM kit with extra clear sprue) has everything you need for a correct A-1. The correct engines, you just need to shorten the wings, early rudder, armored and un-armored single gun 'B' stand. Plus some real nice resin with early wheels. The only things required are the early un-armored pilots seat and correct decals. I have one on my to-do pile. http://www.hyperscale.com/2017/reviews/kits/specialhobbysh48177reviewjh_1.htm Edited October 10, 2019 by Tail-Dragon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opus999 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 That's a beauty! I love the sharp-looking paint job. At 1/32, it's probably a pretty decent size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitfire Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 That's a cracking result, looks really good to me Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit bigger than an Fw 190A-8 in the same scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
