That Dragon kit has a pretty bad reputation when it comes to fit. What has been your experience building it?

I like that dust effect, appropiate for a hot and dry climate like Sicily.

the kit has som fit issues, that is true, but not so big ones, some filler and grinding an it is ok.
it has nice panel lines, lot of versions and a good cockpit, hav not build the ICM so I can not say if it is better

Very nicely done. I built the G-6 Nachtjager a couple of years ago. I thought it was a decent kit. Changed a few build steps but didn't have any major problems. Have 5 more in the stash

Ju88C-6 of KG 40, which operated over the Bay of Biscay in 1942-43. The job of this unit was not only to hunt surface shipping, but to shoot down enemy recon planes and transports heading to Gibralter from the UK. They were also tasked with protecting U-boats on their way to and from their pens on the French coast as well as to help hunt for convoys

That's some really good work on that crate Cherrylock! I love these aircraft and have one in the stash (as a Mistel). Thanks for sharing this beautiful build with us man. Awesome stuff. :dancing:
