“I’m Back” Hans Ulrich Rudel

December 25, 2019 · in Sci-fi · 8 · 1.9K

This is a Hasagawa MaK series Falke Anti Gravity Kannon Vogel. Built this a few years ago. I traditionally don't care for building SciFi models, but that's not to say I don't like SciFi, because I do. This Hasagawa kit pulled me into the Machienen Kreiger [MaK] series. I painted in the same color scheme as Rudel's Ju-87G. I just thought that the multi-barreled cannon version was cool. I thought Rudel would have chosen this bird to fly. Hasagawa also makes the same kit with an excimer laser in place of the kannon. A bit of history extension, being a BMW fan, I concluded they would still be producing propulsion systems in the future thus the BMW logo.

Hasagawa has other kits in this series that I look forward to building. Easy to build, and no rivet counting, just fun. Also, I can not tell how I got it to 'hover' above the ground, but keep in mind it is an anti-gravity raider.
