Very impressive

Shiny decal coat on. Decals tomorrow, then the tiny break off 'carpet food' parts.

Have to wonder what masochist dreamed up the spru attachments for those 'H' front antenna pieces???

Looking very cool Ralph, you should be pleased.

Good work so far!

Down to the wire; literally. Last item before calling it *Finished* is the antenna wire(s). I'm seeing various attach locations when researching on the web, including Andy's, and they vary quite a bit. Anyone have a clear detail of the attach points on the tails? Model does not include any clues!

 

[Ralph Haus]

I'm just going to go with this, on the leading edge of the rudders. Some images 'appear' to show attachment on the inside faces, but with most photos having the black tails it is hard to tell.

 

[Wurger]

It is correct. The antenna wire was attached to the leading edge of the fin where the top cap of the fin started.

Thank you for the confirmation.

My pleasure .. here the enlarged shots, not of the best quality but the attaching point(s) can be noticed though.

interesting about the profile of the NJG 3 bird. NJG 3 did not like the Uhu and stayed with the Ju 88G-6.

 

[Erich]

y'all know what the IV on the tail represents right ?

 

[Gnomey]

Lovely work!
