Italian Stuka from italeri (72 scale)

[BsYamato]

Theres almost 30 years from my begin in this hobby! 30 years and never built a Stuka or an FW-190! It's time to fill at least the Stuka lack..

In the stash i have two of these kits, the regular version and the italian use version.. then box'n'sprues









Good detail level about the kit.. just miss some detail.. theres plastic sheets that resolve this..

Build started from wings. Externarl ailerons higes gone during pieces cleaning i'll fix later..



Lots of flashes on this mould, i think too much copies was done .. glue the nose group, cleaned radio/bullhead and filled wings area root and starded some side detail



floor and vertical struts added



And stop to place pieces in the side walls



Clean up with alchool, then primer and home made rlm 02





Painted details and wash done



then glued the office





the rest too







propeller assembly and test fitting with canopy.. he seems a Stuka



Started about two weeks ago , these works was done in about three or four sessions.. now waiting for putty and painting session!!

Nice also to see a non-German Stuka

This is excellent! I never knew that Italeri made an Italian Stuka. I need to get two of these, especially since I have no Stuka-A's in my collection. Just a 'B' and a 'G'.

Watching with interest.
