Now that brings back many memories. I built this as a youngster during the black outs of, was it 1982?, mostly by candle and torchlight!! It was way before I was into weathering though. This one is a really nice example with some great washes and lovely grubby finishes around the engine.

You might of been away for a while but you have been busy.

Of the three you recently posted, this one is my favourite. Nothing wrong with the others I just like this one more...

Nicely done Andrew, a well-weathered rendition of this Stuka.

Very nice Andrew. I like the weathering & it looks nice & crisp (and even & probably Walkers as well:sorry) a very nice model. Very nice cannon markings how did you do that ? I bet the decals were fun !

Also like the photos if you had used a curved background with out a join that aircraft would have looked as though it was airborne.

Hi Andrew

That's a nice rendition of 21st Century Stuka. It's a shame the shots are a bit dark because the finish and weathering look excellent. Maybe a few shots in daylight when you have the time?

I have one of these kits in the stash. I'll be using the BoB decals within the kit to apply to my Trumpeter/Revell kitbash.

Looks fabulous Andrew

All the best

Paul
