Hasegawa 1/48 Ju87B-2 Stuka

March 25, 2013 · in Aviation · · 1 · 2.1K

I have always liked the ever since I watched my dad build the Guillows balsa wood kit. So here is mine. This is 's Ju87B-2 depicting S2+AM from 4/St.G.77 Eastern Front, 1941..I built this one pretty much straight from the box. I am not too happy with the paint scheme though. It called for RLM 70/71 over RLM 65. I did not have any RLM 71 so I looked on the net to find the FS number and it came up with Model Master FS34052 Dk Green. That color looked ok, but when I put on the RLM 70 it looked too blue...so thats why it looks kinda green over dk gray..oh well...The USAF said I was partially color blind so I may have gotten the wrong color...Looks ok I guess...I use the ol' 10 foot rule...if it looks ok from 10 feet away its ok...
