I'm going to have to look into this Fujimi Stuka kit. I like Fujimi and have a couple on my shelf, notably their A-1 Skyraider.

 

I agree with Bish. I built the G-1 a few years ago. A little lacking in fine detail but it looks like a Stuka and Fujimi makes a whole slew of variants

Thanks for looking in guys. Should have another update at the weekend.

frank, they are not the most accurate, they are a tad over sized, and some detail is lacking such as the rear MG, but i really like them. Nice fit, not over complicated, just a good solid build.

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

Always an interesting subject. I don't know much about these as I haven't built a Stuka yet. Looks pretty cool. I'll be watching.

Its been 2 and a half years since i built a 72nd Stuka, so i am well over due one. I don't usually do a second variant of any subject, but despite haveing already built Rudels R-2, i have wanted to build this aircraft for years. I do like German aircraft with the yellow markings from the Balkans campaign, so this one really got my attention.

I'll be useing the tried and trusted Fujimi kit along with Eduard PE and resin exhausts. Decals will be some generic sets.

As usual, i started on the pit.

After primer and paint, it got a flory wash and some dry brushing.

The pit was then fitted, fuselage put together and the wings, added. The seat belts, radio's and a few other bits have been left out to avoid getting in the way of the fuselage fit. I'll add those later.

More soon.
