    **** DONE: JU87B-2 'Stuka', II./StG 1 (III./StG 51) August 1940 Bob GB

    User Name: Peebs
    Name: Peter
    Catagory: 2
    Scale: 1:48
    kit manufacturer: Hasegawa
    Model: Junkers JU87B-2 'Stuka'
    Additions: Quick boost gun set, Eduard PE kits, Home Made decals(I hope)
    Markings:* 6G+AD, II./StG 1, August 1940

    * III./StG 51 was redesignated as II./StG 1 July 1940 and carried the old StG 51 markings for most of August, or so I've read

    Pilot: Gruppenkommander Hauptmann Anton Keil, Keil was awarded the Knights Cross on 19/8/40 and remained gruppenkommander of II./StG 1 until KIA on the Eastern Front 29/8/41



    The info I've managed to find here suggests the 6G+AD was posibbly grey as per the 'skin' below, the B&W photo seems to show all markings the same colour but any information is most welcome!!!

    I don't trust skins - look how many mistakes they made with the codes and markings in comparison with that photo, for example... good luck with the project though!

    I can see in the photo as compared to the skin that the swastika is not in the right place, and there is no unit insignia, Stg 51 carried this one..

    Nice choice, and a good looking kit. Not sure those codes are grey - could be light green. I haven't found any pics to compare yet, but I'll let you know if I come up with something.
