gazza l Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Hi everyone Next of the production line is this 1/48th Ju 88 from ICM, a great kit with fine panel lines which just required a bit of rivet detailing to add a bit of extra interest. I did add an Eduard photo etch cockpit set, resin wheels and engine oil coolers. Painted with MRP lacquers and weathered with Abteilung oils. Thanks for looking gazza l 51 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRK Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Fantastic, so neat and tidy. I always wonder how people paint circular lines on spinners so neatly, how do you mask this? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winenut Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Really superb build and finish Canopy masking is super crisp Totally agree with GRK's comment above The spinners are a real highlight and add an aesthetic "pop" of interest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wonder how people paint circular lines on spinners so neatly, how do you mask this? Thanks GRK It wasn't easy to be honest and took a couple of attempts to get right. I painted the whole spinner white first then used Tamiya 2mm tape (there is a joint line which was handy for positioning) and then sprayed the two shades of green either side. 19 hours ago, Winenut said: Really superb build and finish Canopy masking is super crisp Totally agree with GRK's comment above The spinners are a real highlight and add an aesthetic "pop" of interest Cheers Winenut I couldn't have done it without an Eduard canopy mask set... a must for these Luftwaffe bombers with greenhouses for canopies. Many thanks to everyone for your kind comments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

28ZComeback Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I love the splinter camouflage. As an aside my dad was in a ditch, Cyprus 1942, and was attacked by some of these bad boys. He said it was "black" and the attack was terrifying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
