1/72 Academy JU87G-2 Stuka 'Kanonen Vogel'

Post by Kobus »

Hi all,

Here is the start of my latest project, and my first ever Stuka.
I must say, I am really enjoying this built, and the fit is excellent.

Love the Stuka. Enjoy seeing the one in Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Looking forward to this build.

Nice start on this. I built the G-1 a coup-le of years back, a very nice kit. I did replace the cannon with resin ones, but really didn't need to as the kits ones are just as nice.

Look forward to seeing more, what markings are you applying.

Hi All...

Work has been keeping me rather busy, and I have not had too much time on the bench in the last two weeks.
However, this morning I managed to do so painting, so I got the first of the top colors down...
Have a look see....
