Hi! I may be out of line, but I thought thezveda Ju-88 & JU-188 kits were repops of the Italaerei molds, but they had raisaed panel lines. I have a few of thier JU-188 kits in my stash
Cheers,

Hi Robert . No, you are not out of line for asking a question . This is Zeveda own tooling and not a rebox of Italeri . The kit has engraved panel lines which are fine and nicely done .

Terri,
This is a late response to this thread, but, great looking job done on the Ju-88. My only complaint is the RLM 70 & 71 colors. The two colors should be very low contrast to each other. I know this is not your fault as most everone does it. Most of the paint manufacturers have the RLM 70 & 71 colors wrong. The only paint I have ever seen that was very close was Humbrol. In this day and age of modeling accuracy doesn't seem to be very inportant, the skill in which you build a model is more important. In the end though it is a very well built model.
