Hey guys,
It took me alittle longer than I had thought to get this kit finished, but hey, It's done!

Hi Penny,

Looks good! What kit is this?

nice clean paintwork Penny..can we see the office on this bird?

This is a Hasegawa 48 scale kit ( kit# Jt13 ) that I had picked up a few years back. This was supposed to be my entry in the "Ladies build", but canopy problems as well as a few others killed that idea.

I will get a couple of pics of the "office" and post them for ya to see.

ok... you asked and now you will receive!

The digital camera gods were smiling upon us today.

very nice !

Great job!! Love the cammo and cockpit details.

Thanks guys. I was happy with how this one turned out.

Hi Penny.

It was too bad you couldn't finish it in time to fight the others, but it turned out nicely in the end.

Very nice build.

How did you get the cockpit looking so dirty and grimy?

Ted

I done an acrylic wash on the inside. It was a shade just slightly darker. After that was dry, I sprayed the whole cockpit with dirty enamal thinner. It doesn't remove any paint, but does give an overall "well used" look to it, but yet not over done.

very impressive Penny . you did a fantastic job on her . thanks for posting the pics.

Thanks Terri. I wish that I had it finished in time for our last build.

Truly awesome work Penny you can clearly see that a lot of hours went into her well done the finish looks flawless congrats

Very nice build!!! Got myself one of these a few days ago. Searching for an Eduard PE set...

Where are the decals from?

The decals came with the kit. I had 3 different planes to choose from with the sheet.

Very Nice looking build Penny. I hate 87 canopies myself, but you can't tell you had any problems

Taylor

I had problems with the back portion where the antenna is located. It spilt there when I was making the hole for the antenna a liltte bigger. Just luckily, that spot was cover up with the paint. Otherwise this kit would've seen the business end of a good hammer...

very nice stuka there Penny i'm currently building italeri's 1/72 stuka i just hope i can pull off as good a finish as yours. well done. Ant
