Pastor John Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) Hi folks, I have devoted July 2025 to Feb 2026 to my Aims brand 1/32 Ju 388 L-1 conversion plus the research needed which ended up being a seperate printed book! I can honestly say I have never made a kit using such a wealth of material and the next step is to put it all together for a future kLP publication. Health wise each model threatens to be my last and I am in and out of hospital monthly so I am even more delighted to have finished this model. Thanks for looking, best wishes, John Edited February 26 by Pastor John Supersonic, Aerobat, FLMattModelling and 37 others 36 4

mozart Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Incredible work John, the level of detail is a joy to behold, not to mention the paint finish and subdued weathering. Spot on to my eyes. Martinnfb, Pastor John and TAG 2 1
