Thunderbolt Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Need to anneal with heat! Pastor John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor John Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 Finished the gear bays on my AIMS 1/32 Mistel S3C. I have also changed the kits moulded canvas boots and will have instead bare polished metal in keeping with many late war Ju 88 photos. I made them shorter - hydraulic leak - than the kits height as well as making the height on one side different to the other - no two leaks are the same said the Welshman lol LSP_Kevin, Fanes, chukw and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrish Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 That's some beautiful work! and done on an already built model yet!! Reminds me of the joke about the gynecologist who wanted to be a mechanic and rebuilt the cars engine by doing it through the tailpipe. Great skills needed there!!

Pastor John Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 So I have taken away most of the incorrect Ju 88 A-1 parts and put in some more scratch work. Thankfully I have a Revell A-4 kit that I plan to finish as a C-6 with its bicycle style MG FF loaders seat and so I can use the A-4 kits very nice late version Co-pilot folding seat - I put in the left side support frame only for now with scratch build right side support and scratch built oxygen units. Thankfully I had some bezels in the spare box for the oxygen gauges. I am basically ready to start painting now but I have done too much and my hands have flared up badly and I need to rest again. O well. Bruce_Crosby, Greg W, LSP_Kevin and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor John Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 My references are a mixture of photos from crashed or wreaked G-1 and G-6s and surviving parts in collections plus the original Flugzugs on the Ju 88 G-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
