Kit: Hasegawa Junkers Ju 87 D-5 Stuka  (09053 / JT53)

Scale: 1/48

Paints: Vallejo Model & Air

Weathering: Flory Models Wash, MIG weathering products, oil paints

 

Built for the Stuka GB. Good solid kit, had a lot of fun with the weathering and making this thing worn and beaten. Went little bit 'artistic' on this one, truth to be told did not look a lot of reference pictures.

 

Out of the box - only added pitot tube and weapon barrels (injection needles).

One note if you allow, personally i find the transition to the original painted mid section a bit to sharp.

True - it's bit more sharp than I might have liked. On the paiting diagram it was showing like a clear cut line but I felt that it didn't quite fit, despite the splinter camo. But could have made the line even less uniform.

Maybe a bit more muck and oil underneath? But still very impressive.

Yeah - I feel like there might be another oil paint session with this. I also forgot gun staining on the wings...

 

Thank you all for comments! :)

Took this model to a local hobby competition event today, and it won 2nd place in it's class :clap2:Alongside with my Thunderjet, which was 3rd in different category.

Your placing in the competition just goes to show your work is highly regarded. Very nice Stuka. I think the weathering looks very good and can picture the real plane looking just like that.
