Trumpeters Junkers JU-87R

[Scaleman]

My entry into the 1:32 Big Bird Buddy Build. Been doing tons of reserch the past few days, about the subject and looking thrugh the paint scheeme and assembly layout, seems like a pretty straightforward build the paintjob is going to be the biggest challenge here i belive. Let the sprue cutting begin.To be continued.

Great choice, I too am thinking of doing a JU 87. Welcome aboard and thanks for taking part.

The kit reminds me of Tamiya as far as fit and cleanup maby even less cleanup, all the parts are flash free with a very fine mold seam. its a bit easy for my taste I like a bit of a build challenge. The detailed engine is going to be covered up mainly cause i think it looks ugly off, there might be an option to not glue it on in the end. I ususally cut out all the parts I need and throw them in assortment boxes. Big parts first then all the detailed parts. The challenge for me is going to me the painting and the canopy so far so good, there is some filling to be done in parts visible from both sides in the cockpit.

Holy smokes dude! What a great kit - serious details. More. More.

[planemaker]

Great start! Looks like a really nice kit. This is gonna be a great build, mate!

[Scaleman]

Progress cockpit painted, and major parts assembeled, the body fit perfectly, the wings have a little gap that needs some work but its a "bulding" seam so it shuld be pretty easy work. The machineguns are in the kit but not in the instructions. Will have one of the machinegun hatches open. Im learning as I go along here, there is doubble glass in the bomb sight where you can see right thrugh the fuselage.

Hi,

Even if I don't like that plane, I must recognise you're doing an excellent job on this kit which looks very nicely detailed and molded.

Keep up this good work mate.

Blimey, you aren't hanging around! Great build so far, looks like a lovely kit

[Tangles]

Very nice job so far, I have this kit but with skis so I'm watching very closely.
It looks like a fun kit to build, I'm looking forward to building mine which could be soon as an entrant to a WWII Bomber GB elsewhere.
So it could turn up here too yet.

[rwsmith14]

Looking good. Are those the kit wheels?

[eightfooticeman]

That right nice looking there Jonas. I hope your enjoying it buddy.

Great choice of kit and great progress so far
Happy Modelling!
