1/72 FW-189V-6 and JU-87R-2 (complete)

Just finished a couple…

MPM’s FW-189 V6
Pretty basic (and not great fitting) kit.
Can’t see into the pit, so I just painted it black in there. Had to add the guns and exhausts (exhausts were nothing more than a “ring” in the plastic).
Bombs and racks were spares from Airfix’s Stuka.

Airfix 1/72 JU-87R-2
Mostly OOB…I scratched the rear seat (copper wire), used the gun from the FW-189 kit and added the sights, pitot tube is aluminum tubing, and the marking were cobbled together from the spares box.

Fermis,

Nice camo on the Ju-87!

The Fw-189 V6 is my favorite variant of the “flying eye”. Gotta love those prop pitch control ”juicers”!

Hi Fermis

Outstanding job with the Stuka camo! Did you apply light grey(?) lines over dark grey base, or dark grey blotches over light grey base?

Thanks, Dudes![t$t]

Hard to tell in the pics…but I did the standard splinter camo sceme (RLM65/70/71), then sprayed a mixed “tan” for the tail and squiggly lines, over top.

Great camo job on both builds.

Great job on both. Is the Stuka the new kit or the older one.

2 very nice looking Luftwaffe subjects you have there!

The camo on the Stuka really popped for me, too. Great job on both actually.

Good to see you online, Fermis.

Well done!

Very nice faded camo on the 189 and a terrific job on the Ju87 :slight_smile:

Hard to believe that this is 1/72 scale. Very impressive!
