JU-88, WHAT? WHO? WHAT?
The 1:32 JU-88 from REVELL? Or a 1/72 kit from ZEVDA?
Basic INFO is needed.

Easy easy. At least I showed pictures as promised :mrgreen:
It's the Revell 1:48. I'm going to tackle the 1:32 Uhu 219 after finishing a couple smaller Luft 46 kits first.

Very nice. This happens to be one of my favorite JU-88 schemes. I redid a Corgi JU-88 in the same motif a while back.

I only use Tamiya paint for all my builds. This one I used the black green, desert sand for main body, and light blue for underside.

That particular JU-88 has just been released by REVELL in 1:32.

Just added the radio cable, some paint chips, and re-painted the underside with correct dark green curly lines that the German used on this plane. Now it looks better than before and historically accurate

Good move, cnq, I was wondering about the underside. I redid a Corgi JU-88 in the same scheme about three years ago and the darker color on the underside makes a big difference.
