1/48 Hasegawa Ju-87 Stuka

[mustang1989]

I built this one in 2014 and it took me a good 7 months to complete. I used an Aires cockpit update set with a modified Hasegawa flooring to fit right due to the Aires flooring not being the right dimensions , Eduard canopy mask set and Tally Ho decals. I had mixed feelings about the decals as they laid down great but to me they seemed slightly out of scale. I ended up having to splice in a section of the snake from an old set of Cutting Edge decals that I had that were mostly unusable due to their age and where I had them stored. Paint is all Model Master Acrylic. The oil reservoir access opening and the wing mounted machine gun details are out of a Verlinden update set I had tucked away for 15 years and had forgotten about until I started building.























I took her to an IPMS show in Austin and she managed to get 2nd place:

That's some great work, deserving of a prize.
