Hockeyboy76 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) My names not on the list, but I’m coming “Blitzkrieg” style with the Academy 1/72 “Tank Buster”. I don’t have a completed Luftwaffe machine in my collection, time to change that.

Enjoy the journey. Cheers, Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilisk Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 The decal do add a nice splash of colour to a great build. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyF Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Lovely to see another Academy 1/72 JU87G-1 Tank Buster in the gallery and outside too. Great build and I'm full of admiration that you managed to get the 'B2' decals on the wheel spats - even with Set/Sol just couldn't get them to sit. The kit didn't include the swastika on the tail - must get one of those. I do like your subtle weathering - something I haven't tried yet on my return to modelling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I used Set/sol and they went on fine, it was just tricky getting them around the canons. Weathering was just Mig Ammo blue/black panel line wash and the humbrol paint went on in thin layers, more to do with the paint from the tin than anything I did.

nimrod54 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 That's a great result matey and it looks really nice in the Welsh sunshine. The natural light makes the camo colours really pop out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Boris has banned us all from leaving our houses, maybe I should leave Wales? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
