Small Scale Military Headquarters

Here they are guys . They are done and I think they look cool if I say so myself. I know they are not right for the Ju-87 B but they look cool any way. I have started to cast them and so far have a couple of pairs. Here are a few pics.









Here is a pic of my little helper she is all tuckered out.


So what do you guys think? They will be going up for sale to you guys first on the forum. I know what they are worth but what kind of value do you all think they are worth. Pm me.

The dishes are clean . The dishwasher broke. A new one is coming on Mon.

So are you only offering the cannons? I don't blame you if you are. I started working on a Ju-87D/G. They are nothing like the one Ju-87B 21st C gave us. Too much work for a conversion IMO, that once I try again I'm going to start from scratch.

These cannons really look great though. What are you asking from them? To bad you didn't know anyone in the aluminum business, you could have some aluminum flash guards made for them. I know there are some for the 1/32 & 1/72 scale models.

I am making the full convertion. Cowling , canopy and other nick nacs. I have the cowling in progress and it is posted in the custom post. But I got these done first. Olifant gave me the idea about doing the cannons only.

I can just imagine how much those muzzels would cost to have fabricated in aluminum.

I am thinking in the $30 range. That is cheap because of the work involved and materials. The barrel has a copper sleave. so it wont warp later on and it also gives strength.

Is there a waiting list? Does someone have a picture of the real thing? I have an extra Stuka that would like to be modified.

There are a few pics in the Squadron Signal Stuka book. There are a few models out there on the tamkbuster Stuka . All there cannons are different. Some even have details that I can't even see on period photos.

There is a line between scale detail and funtion. OK maybe a big line. If you made scale hangers for the pods they would be very fragile. You look at them sideways they would fall to the floor. So I made mine a little beefyer. The way I made the hangers you need to drill three little holes in the bottom of the wing and in about 10 mins THEY ARE INSTALLED

Just pm me. I have 5 sets left untill I make more.

Those look just awesome! I sure admire your work.

Thanks man,
I am thinking of doing a fully painted cannon set. So all you have to do is just screw them on.

I have almost all pf the Stuka vertions. Winter ,DAK, green ,snake, yellow nose. I do not have the Ruddel or the DAK proto type. But all the colors on the bottom look as to be the same. The winter is a little pailer.So if I paint close to the sky blue and shoot a spot of dk green on the front housing and barrel gun metal. One paint should go with all of the Stock Stukas. Mayby DAK broun for the Afrika vertion.

wow.....looks fantastic!

Looks really good!!
