Hey Guys.. its been awhile! So I've stared back on my vintage MPC Junkers Ju87-B 1/24 build after setting it aside for quite a while! Just wanted to let you guys know I'm back in and wanted to ask if anyone has finished this kit, has any tips or photos of their build. I would really like to see...

Hey Guys! Its been a while!! Anyone seen anything new in regards to the Jumo 213 for the D-9? Still looking for some detailed (very) for this engine. ............Its great to touch base with you guys again. Dr.Vnos

Hey Guys I need your help. I'm looking for a Fw190 from 21st century in 1:18 scale. I would prefer a Dora but an A or F would be fine too! I can't find any!!! I've looked online and Ebay... I am watching a Dora... but I can't find a good source. Please help me Bro's!! Say Seesul... That...

Interesting Guys! And very good points! I've studied the Jumo 213. I believe one of the main reasons for this configuration is to be able to place a cannon down the center line of the engine. The Bf-109 did this as well. I can't think of any US or English aircraft that did this. So! I still...

Very Very Good!!! You guys are using your heads! The beers may need to be split! Screw it! Lets all have a few! Dr.v Apart from that. I KNOW our German frriends had a very solid reason for putting those zylinders down. I like the servicing idea as well as the gun arrangment. That...

Hey Fellers! Here's one for ya! WHY are most German fighter engines inverted? Now keep in mind this question is coming from a real "engine" guy. I've worked on everything from lawn mowers to formula one engines... I can't figure it out. I see MANY disadvantages and not many advantages. So...

Hey Guys! As you may know, I'm building a Trumpeter 1/24 Dora-9 and a MPC Stuka Ju-87-B. So the engines are the Jumo 211 and the Jumo 213 (Dora)... The detail of the two engines is very interesting..... First, the MPC Jumo 211 is quite nice...tight fastener detail, good overall scale I think...

Thanks Guys! My understanding of the German Paint Schemes is smallish! Take care!

Is this a 1/24 Stuka????

I see. But I should use this color in the wheel well areas and for some interior paint too? In terms of the Dora and the Bf-109? I've seen this color on many Fw190-s from a to f. So!! Interesting it was sprayed on the outside as well!?? Cool stuff guys. Thank you. Vnos

Fantastic work. Thank you Wayne. Thank your doughter for me. I'm going to order these. Check the reviews out on Amazon! Dr.V

Hey Guys. Wurger sent me a link on another thread for my research on my Dora project. I was looking at some of the "walk around pictures" of a Dora 9 as well a a Fw190-a class machine. I noticed a interior color that was applied to the wheel well areas as well as the landing gear legs and...

Wayne, You make some of the finest models I have ever seen. Period! I can only hope to get close to that quality. Dr.VNostrin

Hey guys... Say has anyone tried the new decal paper from Testors and others for making custom decals? I'm probably going to need to make some of my own for my Dora, and the museum is interested in the product as well. Many times we come across vintage motorcycle markings that we can't find...

Hey FreeBird....yea China.... But hey if they didn't do it I wouldn't have a 1/24 Dora kit...So! I wish Hasegawa did one!!! Dr.Vnos
