Fine job, Paul
G’day Paul (@paulwoodyvanacker),
Great build.
Having built the DML Ju 88G-6 years ago, I know it isn’t a straight forward build.
Liked!
Hi, Paul... this is a really nice finish and a smart looking model. Just one thing to say, though... I don't think the unit was KG30. The fuselage codes and unit emblem are for 1.Staffel, Fernaufklärungsgruppe 120. A KG30 aircraft would have had the parent code '4D', not 'A6'.
That aside, though, I do really like the end result, especially the shades of the 70/71 dark greens and the correct splinter pattern... ;-).
Good to know. The Techmod decals are wrong then. Hmm... whoops
Hi, Paul... I went online and found what I think was the decal sheet you used for your model - https://www.gdkits.com/en/techmod-tm48031c-1-48-junkers-ju-88d-1-a6+hh-iii-kg-30-oberst-werner-baumbach-p-89760.html. Not sure where you sourced your decals but if it was from this outlet, then clearly the markings and the decal pack description don't match. The good news is that your model is 100% correct with the markings you used, it's just not the unit you were perhaps intending for the finished model. To me, it seems to be a mistake in the unit description somewhere along the line that hasn't been picked up. I still like the finish, though... very smart :-).
Thanks mate.
Really nice
Nicely done!
Nice work on a kit well-known as not the world's easiest. A great result.
Thank you.
I definitely prefer the ICM kits. But I had this in the stash and am glad it's done now. 🙂
Beautiful looking Ju88, Paul @paulwoodyvanacker
The splinter camouflage turned out really well.
Love the JU88. Nice work on all the canopy frames!
Excellent result, Paul!
Thanks mate
Nicely built. You did a good job on this elegant aircraft.
