1/48 Dragon Ju88G-6 Nachtjager

[TJ]

For all the negative reviews about this I thought it was a really good kit.  Requires a little modeling but still.  Kit instructions did not mention black lower wing so I had painted markings on that one.  Even with all the antenna this survived a 1500 mile move to my current house.

If there's one thing that I like, it's a Ju-88 and another thing I really enjoy is a well built Ju-88. VERY cool scheme and pulled off in such a good way at that. I've got a Dragon Ju-88/ Fw190 Mistel in my stash that has this very camo scheme on both birds. Exceptional work on a truly great aircraft Johnny!!

You sir are tha MAN for making a move of that size and not having any damage to those antennas.

Thanks for the kind words Joe. I've got another 6 or 7 in the stash.

Very nice! Quite surprising to hear that this one survived the packing and travel of a long move intact with all those fragile antennas. Bravo!

You did great work on this beauty, particularly the camo scheme!

Thanks. It took 3 painting sessions. I kept losing my grip on the airbrush

Really nice work on the Ju-88! Glad to hear it survived your move.

Nice one, I don't recall seeing it before.

That's very nicely turned out indeed.

The mottling has come out really well.

I have a 1/72 Zvezda offering in the stash I will be building sometime!

Again great work.

Thank you Andrew. This is definitely one of my better paint jobs

I've done a few Dragon kits in the past and have no complaints, you did a wonderful job on this and keeping it intact is nothing short of a miracle

Thanks. I was really surprised that it made it. I only ended up having to bin one kit from the move. All others were easily repairable or no damage

TJ, I loved it! Now I think I am starting to regret selling that very same kit to a friend earlier this year. LOL
