vppelt68 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Welcome! That's a classic Ju 88 scheme, and you sure have some etch to ice the cake! V-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyE1976 Posted January 13, 2023 Author Share Posted January 13, 2023 Been working through the non-coloured PE ready for a coat of paint on the cockpit. Nearly there, but lots of tiny pieces. Eduard would have you attach ammo belts and guns at this stage, but they'll wait for later. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyE1976 Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) Finally finished the cockpit PE and got some paint on! Tamiya XF-63 for the interior and then an oil wash The rest of the aircraft is simple to put together and the fit is excellent. I think it's going to need some riveting though as it's just a bit plain. Edited February 6, 2023 by AndyE1976 Fix paint number 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyE1976 Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 (edited) Didn't make the deadline for this group build, but still going on this one. Revell kindly moulded the date inside the fuselage, thankfully out of the way, but it was interesting to see that this was first released in 2011 - I remember building it back then using some left over Airfix starter paints, humbrol glue and the most basic of tools while staying at my parents house on a work trip. This time the fit didn't seem as good as I recalled and the wing to fuselage required a lot of filler. Got it all together and 'primed' with some XF-19 as a basis for the white and yellow to go on.
