Nice work Jim, i always like a nice Stuka, even more so when its Rudels. Did the kit not include the fuselage codes.

Only error i can see is the yellow wing markings, the V, it should only be on the left wing.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I saw this kit at the hobby shop yesterday and almost bought it. I think I built it back when it was new.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

I did too.  For some reason, I painted it black with sky blue underside.  I have a couple in the stash (original boxing and white box).  I built one for Bish's Stuka GB, but had to modify it a bit to actually make it a DV.  The kit is an odd combination of DIII and DV variants.
