of their build or someone else’s…I’m currently building the stuka ju-87G by hasegawa and was wondering if anyone else has and can share their cockpit…or something similar…

thanks,
Doug

Doug - I recently started the Ju87-R2, but forgot and closed the fuselage without taking cockpit photos. I’ll post what I have even showing a little of the cockpit. Is there something in particular you are looking for?

yes well, I’ve painted my cockpit interior the dark grey called for in the instructions however I’d like to detail it with other colors…for the flooring…the walls etc…was just looking for inspiration.

Thanks,
Doug

I built this Hasegawa Ju 87G-2 a while ago, using Eduard photoetch parts. If you’re comfortyable with PE, I highly recommend this detail set.

Hope this helps !

Thanks guys,

Those pics are just what the doctor ordered…Pix…that’s one hot stuka in winter camo…nice pics too…May I ask you…did you find it difficult to apply the spiral decal on the nose…? or how did you do it?

Was it tricky to apply the nose decal?

Thanks,
Doug

I don’t think that that is a decal Doug.

I used the kit decals on the Stuka, including the spiral on the spinner. The surface has to be very smooth and glossy so that you can move the decal around. I applied the decal from the spinner’s backplate, moving towards the nose. It just takes patience, and a few applications of Micro Sol. Hasegawa’s decals seem to work better for me when I dip them in very hot (but not boiling) water. Glad you like it !

Yeah you sure did a great job painting her too…did you get that scheme from something historic…or was is one you put together…?

Thanks,
