Well, I saw some very positive OOB reviews on utube of the Trumpeter kit. Just goes to show that they are rather meaningless as the actual build provides the real review. Sad to see the results posted on this thread... Mark Proulx

Sad to read this Bill. OOB the kit looks impressive! Mark Proulx

Working on that purchase. Quinta cockpit set as well. Just bought the Windsock Triplane books to try and figure this think out. As I stated earlier, the learning curve for me will be rather steep! Mark Proulx

Excuse my blunder, but I should have stated that it is the Meng 24th kit I bought. Why I typed Merit?... Mark Proulx

Forever to find a two-bladed prop......Geez, if it wasn't for your post I would still be looking!... Mark Proulx

Fair enough, but the Revell kit scale doesnt match that of the Merit Triplane. That an important consideration if trying to amass a collection IMHO.... Mark Proulx
-
After grabbing the Merit Triplane in 1/24th, I started digging a bit more into this scale for WW1 aircraft (being a complete novice in this era). I found the Se-5a and Spad in 1/24th scale. I thought they could be a great add-ons with the Merit kit. However, like you I didn't find much (in fact, you found more than I did!). I believe that the Spad had great potential and was kind of shocked to see no aftermarket decals for that kit. Oh well, perhaps over time some decals and 3D stuff may appear. Mark Proulx

The more "squarish" Stuka canopy was a feature of earlier variants. The canopy became more tapered with the arrival of the Ju 87 D/G. If one considers that virtually every Stuka kit made in plastic has an inaccurate canopy, a 3D correction set could prove quite popular. Given some of the stuff currently being offered, I would think that this isn't beyond the realm of possibility. However, I know nothing of the 3D process.... Detailed photos are possible, as both versions of the Stuka are in museums. Just sayin... Mark Proulx

I think Google might be your friend. Search for "Stuka Walkaround" (for example) and you should find images that clearly show the Stuka canopy framing. While some is internal, edges of the framing likely is not. HTH Mark Proulx

Thierry correctly described the Stuka canopy. It is mostly braced internally, a feature no model manufacturer accurately depicts. Mark Proulx

It has been "acting up" for me this morning in Canada. On the bright side, at least we don't get flooded with advertising! Mark Proulx

Looks very good! Any issues with the fit of the checkered markings to the forward fuselage? This, a common area of concern. Mark Proulx
