Back when I was having troubles with my Me410 canopy, I went hat in hand to beg to buy a vac canopy from the only folks who made them, MPM Models. I didn’t want to buy the whole interior set, just the precious canopy. I somewhat desperately offered to make my next build one of their kits. Not only did they give me a couple of canopies, they graciously offered me any kit in their catalog. Wow! The choice was not easy- they make a ton of cool stuff- but the Planet Models Ju 388 had long been tempting me- it was fate! A Bomber Command group build at Modelers Alliance is a happy coincidence- and means I’ve got one year to make the best of it!
Well, MPM- a promise made is a promise kept- here’s my take on your marvelous kit- with Fritzi, Hannah and friends along for the ride!
What an ambitious project! I’ve followed your Helldiver and Me-410 builds and am really looking forward to this one! Is your Kubelwagon diorama going to the back burner or will you work on both?
Happy New Year, Chuck! It’s good to see the next project getting started, and good recovery on the mismatched molding. I’m curious–have you heard anything from Planet Models about that little error? I can imagine that there are some folks out there who’d have fits if they found that kind of mistake in a kit like this.
Thanks, fellas! I’ve been kinda busy as of late- but have been slipping in a bit of work here and there. I’ll been sneaking at my Kubel build as well- it’s all a matter if time.
I’ve been forming a strategy for this build- and have launched into it. Take a look!
I’d been so wrapped up in your diorama build that I didn’t realize you had started yet another plane! My experience with resin is limited, so it will be interesting to see what happens here!
Chuk, that is a really cool office! Love the computer setup and all the great artwork! The Ju 388 is looking great too! One question…no framed and signed picture of Fritzi? [t$t]
