Revell 1/32 Junkers Ju 88A-4

July 17, 2023 · in Aviation · · 20 · 0.8K

One of 's Luftwaffe giants. Unlike Revell's previous Ju-88A-1, the A-4 with the longer wing span and overall more familiar features makes a better impression. However, the building process is marred by the crude parts resulting with poor fit, particularly in the front fuselage area. I added control and hydraulic cables and gunsights for a more realistic look.
