Revell 1/32 JU88

[Vaughan]

Well I started this one in 2016 and it got a bit lost along the way. It's been sat in my man cave for 3 years . It's all finished now no real problems although when I removed the canopy masks there was a lot of residue from the tape so not as good as I would have liked. I had fun trying to photograph this one my A1 artist paper wasn't big enough so there was a bit of fudging to make it work hence there a fewer photos than I would normally post. During the photo session the main wheels axels both broke due to the weight of the model so a quick repair was needed in the shape of brass tubing all sorted now though. I have another model kicking around the cave a Dauntless that I started back in 2014. Have just bought some Montex canopy and national insignia and tactical marking mask so that will probably be on the bench. All comments welcome.

I too have one of these in my stash and if it comes out HALF as good as this I will be very happy.

Lovely job

[Vaughan]

Thanks gents. Now the issue is where am I going to display the beast? Was thinking of displaying it by hanging it vertically on a wall but not sure how that will work any suggestions? I have the Revell 1/32 he111 in the stash so that will be a challenge too.

Very nice.

Well I've hung the JU88 from a picture hook(the hook is held by a 4cm pin) using 8lb breaking strain fishing line and I think it looks ok. If it stays put then I think it's the way to go for hanging larger planes when your limited for space. If it falls off I'll be buying a new Ju88:astonished:

Great finish Vaughan. As for the storage solution, that's something I might be adopting in the future.
