SkerryAmp got a reaction from Jack12477 in Junkers Ju 87G-2 Stuka 'Kanonenvogel' by popeye the sailor - Fujimi - 1:72 scale
POPEYE!
So, I come back after 3 years and see you have decided to dominate not just the seas, but the land and air as well! Damn my friend - busy busy busy!
I have so enjoyed going through your work - I grew up in the plastic world, worked in a hobby story around here even - Eric Fuch's, managed the one in Nashua and Burlington for several years. That is where the bug hit - loved the plastic world and it just brings me such joy to see work being done there. Sometimes makes me sad that modelling overall has diminished in popularity but love that people like yourself and others on this site are keeping it alive!
Love it!

So next up we have the forward arch. Of course the plywood is not pre formed so it is very stiff and while it could be muscled into place I no longer apply brute force - so soaking, bending and strapping it is!
That part went surprisingly well, so once dried and formed I slapped on the veneer (I think in the future I am going to stay away from veneer - something about it is odd)
And then - after carefully trimming - we attach it to the forecastle and things are starting to move forward!
Next up! The forecastle deck!
Enjoy!

WOW - This is an amazing piece of work - the interior details are absolutely wonderful, I can't tell you how much I admire the skill for a ship such as this. Just fantastic.

Good plan. There's enough good about this model to make it worth retrieving. And what you're doing so far is very good - you'll end up with a far better model than you would have, had you completed it way back then.
Which, after all, is what it's all about.
