Commissioned Stuka
1:24
All the masks worked well in the end, the tricky bit that required most respray and remask is around the yellow fuselage...
プロジェクト: Stalingrad Stuka

Gary KitchenDefo following along. 1:24 scale Andy? That's a big change of pace 😄

Andy Ball 著者Thanks for looking me out Gary, it's a commission so not my usual scale, correct. Having done the original SuperKit of the Mk.1a I'm hoping this 1975 moulding will not be too difficult…watch this space!

BozzerI'm gonna have to slide in for this. I've always been curious about the Stuka? Done the Spit, Hurricane and 109, and had the Hellcat, but gifted it to my brother. Judging at what I had to work with, you've got a tough ride! But, that's why we do it, right? 😉

Andy Ball 著者Hello Bozzer yes I'll suffer for my art! And thanks Gary V - hope to progress soon- more photos coming up.

DarthPanzerHi Andy! This looks very impressive build. I was wondering if you could tell me if this is a new tool or not. Looking forward to see the final product!

Michael Kohl@DarthPanzer: you can figure it out yourself: klick on the kit in the project, then scroll down to the timeline and you will see, that it was a new tool - back in 1975. Everything after that were only reboxes.
I more than once cherished this timeline as it will tell how old the stuff in the new box really is.

Neil PatrickWell done Andy! I know I'm late to the show, but looks like you're well on the way. Is this an old one or the new Classic boxing?

Andy Ball 著者Well, I have kick-started this carcass….
Work resumes…
It's a 1976 kit FFS.
So much prep required, and I'm determined to make a good result for an "auld Scottish Pal" who asked me to make a "Stalingrad Stuka" and I couldn't say "no"!!

Andy Ball 著者Thanks Neil and Skyhiker….the glacial pace of this build continues….slowly and "with plenty of lumps"….

Andy Ball 著者@Guy, thank-you, model making has many important benefits in terms of mental health! And I've been really lazy too…I'll swing by and have a look at your stuff!!

gorbyIt's looking good so far.
I remember building this when I was a kid back in the 70's. It was a mind-blowing kit back then.

Andy Ball 著者Thanks Gorby and Robert!, seasons greetings- I'm going to push on with this over the holidays- welcome aboard!!

Andy Ball 著者You are most welcome Jennifer!
Thank-you J35J for the acknowledgment too.

Andy Ball 著者In the twilight of '24 I have pushed ahead before the winter (what the Germans should have done in 1941!)…around 20 hours of work provides a good progress report on here…

Denis DogadovBombs should not be black!
And they were usually color-coded to indicate the type of bomb. For a 24-scale model, I think these details matter.

Denis DogadovWell, I can offer more interesting ideas for " Just artistic license."

Andy Ball 著者Denis!! I love this !!, thank-you!!
I did the bombs in Tamiya's Panzer Grey…. (RLM66?)…and I'll have to stick with that decision now as they're stuck on….I'm guessing macabre humour was on both sides of the war…..many many thanks for your critique!

CuajeteAndy, this one has to be huge. The details are superb and the paint job is very good. Now I understand why I haven't seen you around 72nd scale in a long time.
Your friend will be very proud when you finish it and give it to him. Great job so far! 👍

Andy Ball 著者Thanks Guy! I think there are better mediums than PE for the subject of fabric seat belts in 1/24th….they are tricky to shape into something that looks line "fabric"….but glad I've used them !
8 January, 22:14
Andy Ball 著者Thanks Cuajete!, any imperfections in painting will be disguised with weathering!, this subject's going to be battle-weary! And, yes, 24th is a less familiar scale, but when an old mate asks you for a commission- it's rude not to…..
