Very impressive looking Stuka I love the winter camo paint on it Not overdone at all Who makes that Stuka? I have the 1/72 Academy G1 kit waiting for me to build it

I'm no expert on aircraft weathering,so I'm not sure if a wash is called for

that's an awesome stuka! This was the one you were talking about in another post, the one with the dog inside a red circle Eh?

You forgot to put in the full adress of the pic i.e. HTTP://www.armorama.com/blah blah blah e.t.c. e.t.c.jpeg

Also you put down [/IMG] as the first thing when it should be [img] without the forward slash

Hope this helps you in future posts

hi,

firts i sprayed the whole plane dark gray and after it had dried i've sprayed it white (all with tamiya spraycans ...i have no airbrush) then i took a Q--tip of white spirit and rubbed on the white wings int the direction of the airflow ..the white will gently come off. the decals are applied before i sprayed it all white.

and yes it's the red-cirkle-dog immelman stuka in winter camo.

tomorrow i'll start with the underside

Nice Stuka and well done white wash.
Personally I would give it a wash, dark grey with a hint of brown. Make sure you give it a protective coat before the wash, otherwise you will end up removing the whitewash. I use Klear (Future for that).
