Oh no!... not another one of those snake Stukas.... Hasegawa 1/48 Ju-87R-trop
Finally finished this one- a battle royal. The day I started this Murphy's law became the law of my bench. As usual, Eduard P-E cockpit & masks were employed and decals were from Eagle-Cals.
I added a few things here & there- [...]
The new airfix Ju87 Stuka
This is the second build for airfix Model World Magazine, the new 1:48 Airfix Ju87 Stuka. Another stunningly good kit, this has some great features, dropped flaps, angled elevators and a brilliantly detailed engine is provided if the [...]
1/32 Hasegawa Ju87D-3
I love the Stuka, but my first foray into 1/32 was a 1/32 Hasegawa Spitfire VB that I refurbished- an old friend gave it to me when he decided he wasn't interested in kits anymore- it was shortly post High school, it was stripped of its [...]

Honey I shrunk the model!!!
OK it's the old giant toy quarter trick. But I have to say I have never seen it done.
In the second photo the real quarter is on the left. Sorry about the photos but it is hard to hold still when you are laughing. Who says you can't have [...]
Junkers Ju-87 R-2 Stuka ‘Desert Snake’
This is Hasegawa's 1/48 scale rendition of the famous 'Desert Snake' Stuka flown by Leutnant Hubert Polz from Tmimi on the Libyan coast in 1941. Polz was later transferred to the Russian Front where he won the coveted Knight's Cross and [...]
And now for something a little different…
And I do mean little! A friend in Japan sent me these a few years ago. They are Bandai kits in 1/100 scale, and yes, I had to assemble them, though they did come prepainted. I can't even begin to imagine the power of the magnifier the [...]
