Dornier Do 17Z-2 KG76


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

Here is the second of my two latest kits finished last week, also a Mark I Model's 1:144 Dornier Do 17Z-2.
This one represents F1+AL, Stab II./KG76, Luftwaffe, France, 1940.

 

All the comments on the other build apply here except that this kit has a loop aerial above the cockpit instead of the blister the other kit had. I had to thin the part as much as I could.
As with the other one, the kit was fully painted and varnished with brush.

 

Thanks for looking
Miguel

Great work Miguel,

 

I love also the way you show your work. Very professional!

That's very kind of you. I try to get decent shots from all major angles with my limited resources and using natural light as much as possible (I only use a normal table lamp from the left side). I only post a selection of the photos I've taken here or else it would be too much!

Absolutely brilliant, Miguel. I bet it was fun masking the canopy and nose glazing. I built the ICM 1/48 Do 17Z last year, and that was fun masking up, so  doing that in 1/144 scale must have been  tricky. :cheers::worthy:

Actually, I painted the canopy frames freehand :winkgrin:!

For such a small scale, that's a very well finished model... I struggle with hand-painting 1/72 Do17 canopies, so I can only imagine how much more difficult doing that in 1/144 scale is!  A smart finish indeed... well done.

 

Regards,
