Pastor John Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) Master radar and Profimodeller W.Gr 21cm rockets for G-2 on their way to me now, its all coming together well. I am making a full display model in a darker resin that shows off the contrast between plastic and the conversion set. Not doing much scratch building - only those details needed for either assembly or what I needed to do to confirm what I say in instructions. Lots of fun. I could not do more with the MG 81Z as waiting on production PE that has parts on it I need.

thierry laurent Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hi John, Beautiful scale replica! Nonetheless, I have one question: the ammo pink strips: are they rubber band sections? If they are, be warned rubber generally does not age well. It becomes brittle and disintegrates into a kind of sticky and darker residue! If this is rubber, we will have to find a more stable alternative. Any idea? Hth Thierry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor John Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Thanks for the heads up and yes it is. I have these same bands in my complicated Ju 88 C-6 weapons battery for 5 years now without any problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artful69 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I take it that the 20mm FF's are sourced from the belly armament in the kit? Rog Rick Griewski, Shawn M and Out2gtcha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I take it that the 20mm FF's are sourced from the belly armament in the kit? Rog Good question. It appears so, but do all of the various DML 110 kits contain the Schräge Musik? Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Good question. It appears so, but do all of the various DML 110 kits contain the Schräge Musik? The only Bf110 which carried Schrage Muzik was the G4, ie the conversion that John is doing. Therefore the answer Brian is "No, none of the DML kits do." Whether the cannon are part of John's package isn't clear but it doesn't really matter much either way in my opinion.

Max I guess I probably should have clarified Max, was wondering if the 20 Mike-Mikes come in any of the standard DML kits as other armament, such as Rog listed like in the belly armament of the OOB kit.

mozart Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hmmm, we share a language Brian, kind of, but a lot is lost in translation! What is a 20 mike mike? Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor John Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) The upward firing cannon are MG FFs - which are in all the kits and are the same weapons as found in the Belly up to and including the 110 F. The only work needing to be done if modelling such a G-4 being to scratch build the simple cylinder spent cartridge container that cannot be see afterwards anyway!
