Derar Pete!

Good work, it was very surprising for me to see that some people are interestet in JG51! My Uncle was Hans Illner (the creator and painter of the JG51 bird), Maybe I can send you some pics of the original raven (which is in fact a cartoon of Winston Churchill, as I was told) All the best, and greetings from Austria,

Stefan hi

Great to hear from you and welcome to ARC, I'm sure you will find many here interested in JG51.

The decals were made for a model I did a while ago, you can see the completed build here

This aircraft crashlanded a few miles from where I live hence my interest. I'd love to see the photos you had as I'm sure some of the real Luftwaffe experts here would.

I've given up on making models and now instead working on aviation art. A Me109 painting is on the short list - maybe it should be from JG51 - maybe your Uncles aircraft
