Finally finished JU-88C-6

I ended up taking a few liberties with a bit of the detail but all in all I'm pretty pleased how it turned out for a 1:72 Scale Revell kit. My collection of night figters is growing.

Great work. I loved the posed open engine covers and entry hatch.

I've built that kit many times in my youth. I don't recall the entry hatch opening. Is that a local mod that you made? Excellent.

One of the liberties I took. From what I could find the dampers were just stainless steel and usually painted over. I figure since paint don't stick to stainless very well never mind hot, that would be how they would look after a while. I tried making them look blueish like stainless would look but it just didn't look right so lets say they are just steel. The Revell kit the chin hatch is separate. Lots of the pics I found show it open with a ladder coming out of it. I couldn't find a good picture of the ladder instal so I didn't put one in.
I'm not entirely happy with the mottled paint, my air brush was having a pissy fit but I went with anyways and it doesn't look to bad, I wasn't into re doing it !
