Junkers Ju88 A-1

Hello!

 

This is my first effort in this scale, and i must admit, it´s plain addictive!

For a long time that i´ve been drooling around the work that is shown around here, so i decided to bite the bullet and take a change on this new kit.

I think that, excluding the first kit that i bought, this is the one that came straight from the box into the bench.

 

i want to thank all the kind persons around here for the marvellous amount of information posted on this kit, and that has enabled me to complete a little bit more the experience with this kit.

 

All comments and criticism are most welcomed, because my main objective is to learn how to work in this scale!

 

P.S. excuse me please for some bumps that may appear in my english... :o

 

So here are the pics:

 

I tried to transform the BZG 2 bomb sight:

Main structure of the cockpit painted, and with the ammo cases with leather straps, and home made seat-belts:

Hello all, and thanks for the feedback!

 

Here are some pics of the pit almost finished, and already with a flat coat.

I´ve used the AIMS decals on the dashboard, and they performed very well!

 

Also added some more plumbing as well as hydraulic lines.

 

Hope you like it!

 

My best regards!

Welcome!!!

 

This is great cockpit fella - what did you highlight the greay with?

Do you ususlly kit in a smaller scale?

 

Ads ;)

 

Thanks Ads! I added a little bit of white to the main color, and made a graduation.

My main scale is 1/48, and this is the first adventure on the big game :rolleyes:

 

Thanks junkers88a1! congratulations for your marvellous work!

That is some exceptionally neat work José! How did you get those blue pipes painted so neatly? Your cockpit looks wonderful.

 

Kev

 

Thanks everyone!

 

Kevin, the pipes were pre-bended, and then painted with vallejo Model color 70808 Blue Green, trying to achieve an approximate match to the ones i saw here on the info thread about the Ju 88.

 

My best regards!

 

José
