This is the first model that i actrull botherd to concentrate on! It is a 1:48 Hagawasa Ju-87. The box must have gotten wet during shipping (warping on the cardboard) because the decals did not stick well.
Hope you like it:

Sorry procrazzy you'll have to upload your photos to the site before you can show them in a post. Can't just post the name of the file as it exists on your computer, we can't see it.

maybe some more pic's.It looks good but next time use some white paper or licht blue (wathever) to photograph the craft.The red background manipulates the stuka's colours.

Hi Philip,
Hasegawa's Stuka is a nice kit, I've built one, a B-2 Trop and have another on the go, an R-2 Trop. I have a third one in my stash which is a G-2, it will be finished as the mount of Hans Rudel in a winter finish I will also be looking to complete a B-2 during the Battle of Britain.
It looks like you have done a decent job on the camouflage but haven't painted the framing on the canopy. One of the hardest jobs to do well, when modelling aircraft. Looks like you've had a little mishap with the antenna and rear defence machine gun. Was it a heavy landing, or the cat ?
You say the decals did not stick well? If they had got wet they would probably be useless. Did you use different decals? Did you apply them over a gloss coat?
What model, if any are you building at the moment?
