I do like the dot pattern that was used on the 88 and 188.  Very nice modeling and thanks for sharing.

Thanks! I am going to build also 188 soon, but I am not sure if in the same scheme...

Excellent job on that Ju 88, J-W! That dot pattern is very nicely-done - it would make me blind to attempt it!

 

Best Regards,

Jason, thank you! It was not that bad - I used a small "hairy stick" with hairs cut for about 1.5 mm only, applied paint vertically...

Great work on this, Jerzy!  I had no idea what the paintwork was for aircraft participating in this wasted effort.

Alex, many thanks! Maybe the pixel scheme was giving some illusions, like WW1 Lozenge?
