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

Image

Image

Image

Image

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 :DH: i'll fix later..

Image

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

Image

floor and vertical struts added

Image

And stop to place pieces in the side walls

Image

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

Image

Image

Painted details and wash done

Image

then glued the office

Image

Image

the rest too

Image

Image

Image

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

Image

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

Again a master example of scratchbuilding!

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.
