The Mikester Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 I have two of these in my stash. Got them ebay with the AIMS resin correction sets and some other goodies, might try to squeeze one in if I have time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Ohhh this one's going to be fun to follow along with. Great picture of the actual, and this one's definitely going to be a unique looking -88. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GGoheen Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Can't wait for this one either Jes, as I love the look of that Berlin nose! :lol: Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Touvdal Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 So started on the projekt. Normaly I accept smaller differences in measurement, but this Rudder was serious undersized as can be seen aganst drawing. here replacement cheers jes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Now that is a bad case of 'tiny rudder syndrome'... far to small, but looks like the bottom "keel" is completely wrong in shape too. That new one looks spot on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GGoheen Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Wow...that is a huge difference between the kit rudder and replacement from Quickboost. Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Touvdal Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 More progress Had to add 2 mm of plastic card to get the right fit and lenght. cheers Jes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GGoheen Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Nice work with the plastic card shim Jes, as I think I'm going to need to do the same when I fit the resin pieces on my Ju 88 to convert to an H-2. Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Touvdal Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Building all finishe now ready to paint cheers Jes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mikester Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Looking good, Jes. The Zvezda kit looks a lot less "fiddly" than the Hasegawa Ju 88 I'm working on right now (too many parts). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Touvdal Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 I do not like the look of the layout of the fuselage in 2 pieces fra Hasegawa, never liked that, difficult to align cheers Jes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Great, great work going into this one. A really nice looking nose too! Can't wait to see this one painted up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
