Weekend JU-87 build

[Brian da Basher]

Cool I can't wait to see those pics! I just love Spanish Civil War aircraft. You gotta love those Republican markings because they make a great stand-by when you don't have a lot of other options. Also, the Republicans flew such an oddball assortment of stuff that you can pull off a lot of whiffery and gaslight the JMNs.

Those dang fascists had much cooler camo though...

Well...at least you can't see all of the miniature decal wrinkles :

Cool!

I'm in the same boat as you Bri, those SCW colours are just so cool! And simple.

Not that I'VE ever done one, though....yet... B)  

[SinUnNombre]

DAMN! That came out looking great. That scheme really complements the Stuka's just-kinda-off look perfectly. I think I need to pick one of these up in 1/72 and put that camo and IDF roundels on it.

Thanks!  You can't go wrong with the Fujimi 72nd scale stukas...they are really, really well engineered!

[Brian da Basher]

Wow those decals are the icing on the cake! My hat's off to you on one of the best Stukas I've ever seen!

Gotta love the brutal ugliness of the Stuka.

And this one is beautfully done

You would have to be the Paint Master!!!!

I mean between your stuka and the hind in the other thread your skill is something to inspire to.

Keep em comin!

I almost missed your post, that is a great looking Stuka and a really nice paint job on it.

Yep, all of their cd's ! LOL...
         Thanks...it sure was a fun build, and taught me to love a heretofore unliked aircraft.

    Isn't education wonderful?  

[BlackOps]

Alright! just for that your next build's nose art has to say "My Sharona"  

Nice build!

I've seen Stukas before that I considered "beautiful builds" meaning, ugly-donkey aircraft, but nice job building it, but yours is the first Stuka I've seen that I would just call "beautiful".

[cthulhu77]

Wow !  Thanks even more, everyone !  It sure has been a fun year of modeling, and I would have to say the best part was running into this crowd here...you all are great group, and consider yourself toasted ! (rum and eggnog tonight)
