Greetings all Here is my latest offering of a Ju87D-8(N) E8+HH that was operated by 1./NSGr.9 during the second quarter of 1944 near Florence, Italy. It was lost in action on 7th July 1944. The final camo pattern and colours are a bit of a departure from the kit call-outs, but the rationale behind the decisions because of actual photographic evidence can be found on the build article. 1/32 Hasegawa JU87D-8 kit Aires cockpit AIMS AB500 bomblet containers plus some flash hiders I poached from one of my AIMS Bf110 detail sets and an antenna isolator HGW seatbelts SB cannon barrels and pitot tube Quickboost Type A exhausts Quickboost Spinner and VDM blades Profimodeller detail set for airbrake hinges and underside bomb release Master Mg81Z barrels for the observer position Nice build overall, great having a big Stuka in the collection now!! Real bird is the 2nd aircraft of the image underneath...

Greetings all I've always enjoyed the Stuka since I was a kid, so had it in the back of my mind to build a night attack version using the Owl markings. Managed to get hold of a Hasegawa G-2 (with Mater barrels) that I was going to convert into in D-8, but then as luck would would have it, I found a D-8 on an auction that fit the bill perfectly. So.....I suppose I will eventually get to building the night G-2, but this D-8 comes first. So below is the version of the D-8 I was going to build, however, the kit markings and camo scheme are way more appealing to me. So there we go. I'll be building that specific version as on the box art. The G-2 version I'll do at a later stage with the Owl markings... As you can see from the above pics, I've the Aires interior set, Eduard masks and HGW belts for it. On the way is a Quickboost spinner and blade set, as well as a Yahu IP Cheers Iain
