Members Mikester Posted February 18, 2019 Author Members Posted February 18, 2019 To all of you waiting for a 1/32 Yahu IP for the Ju 87D, you're welcome. Murphy's law of modeling! 7 1
Peterpools Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Mike Thanks for posting - the Yahu IP looks mighty good Peter 1
Members Mikester Posted March 22, 2019 Author Members Posted March 22, 2019 Making some progress, fit has been very good up to this point. Just some minimal filling and sanding, Hasegawa very rarely lets me down in this regard. Enjoying this much more than that dreaded PCM 190! 7
Bomber_County Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Looking way good there Mike......May swap in the old Revell 87 for this new tool..... 3
coolboxx Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Great going Mike, do fancy having a go at an 87 3
Martinnfb Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Looking good Mike. Here is a little motivator. 1
Rodolfo Torres Vazquez Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 Excellent details my friend!, 1/32 is a big bird! Regards! Rodolfo 2

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted March 24, 2019 Administrators Posted March 24, 2019 Thanks for the Yahu panel, Mike. I owe you a beer or two for that selfless act of Public Sacrifice. Looking mighty fine! 2

Airscale scaled down the guages from their actual size. Most model IPs are scaled down to fit in the cockpit. I have their 1/32 scale decals and for the most part they're too large for any of my 1/32 IPs. I just learned something new. Huh, who’d’a thunk it?

Charly Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 I paint it by my D-5 in RLM 66. (Maybe the same rules like for the Cockpit. All what is visible from outside: RLM 66) br KH 1
Wumm Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Well, the Peil G IV is described as an "Iron core Search (apparatus) frame"... Conventional wisdom has the outside material as Bakelite, so a speckled dark brown colour would be my choice. This is the G V... Zoukei Mura in their He219 kit has you paint the G VI antenna silver, with the housing tub as RLM66. I would have thought that O2 would have been the preferred option for the tub colour. 3
harv Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 So, what exactly is it for and how does it work?.....harv 1
Wumm Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Harv, it's a direction finding and homing device. The earlier versions could be rotated manually by the Bordfunker if one was present in the Crew; or in the case of single seaters like the Bf109, it remained in fixed position along the Aircraft axis and the Pilot merely turned to find the signal. 3
Guest DannyVM Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 One of the few German subjects i would like to build one day. The Hasegawa kit is a real gem, so i'm really looking forward to your further progress .
Members Mikester Posted October 14, 2019 Author Members Posted October 14, 2019 Drug this beast out to get some paint on it now that the garage isn't unbearably hot any more. Mr. Color 04, 65,70 and 71. Still have some post shading to do and paint the markings but feels good to to see it with some paint on it! 8 1
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted October 14, 2019 Administrators Posted October 14, 2019 Nice to see this back on the bench. 4
BlrwestSiR Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Just catching up on this build. Really nice paint job there Mike. Still amazed at how big the Stuka was. And thanks for the Yahu IP panel too! Carl 3
