Roland SachsenhoferI once have allready built one of these remarkable kits, so I will not show every step of the building process.
This first Ju-87G has been sold, the recent one with winter camo and Verlindens Jumo 211 will be purchased by a collector- so I have to build one for myself this time! 🙂
For both aircraft I am using Eduards "Big Ed" set.

Philip De KeyserI will follow this one, great start and awesome cockpit, looking forward to the next step😉

Roland SachsenhoferHi Philip, welcome! Well... the cockpits consists in wide areas of Eduards contributions to modelling... The kit is not a new one, but Hasegawa did a very fine job!

Holger KranichThgis is gonna become the next build by Roland! And as usual, it will be interesting and a pleasure to watch!

Heico van der HeideThis is a nice kit, but i had some troubles with the big guns...

Albi HitzCool Roland ... got this one on my to do lst as well ... I'll take a seat ... 🙂

Aghis BarberopoulosRoland, you have to tell us your secret: How do you actually start and finish multiple projects - I usually start something like 10 and finish 2.......... per year 😄
29 July 2013, 18:06
Roland SachsenhoferHello all- and thank you for your interest!
Aghis, you are right, maybe that´s a little bit megalomaniac, even for my appetite... 🙂 We will see how long these projects will take for being finished.
Sorry, but besides drinking delectable Austrian coffee and Red Bull I remind no secrets to share... 🙂

Aghis BarberopoulosAustrian coffee is nice😉 I have to start work on my Kanonenvogel too, so I have to increase my coffee stash (I cannot drink redbull) 🙂

Roland SachsenhoferHi, thank you all for encouraging me! I am engaged in heavy sanding... this will take a while 🙂
31 July 2013, 08:50
Roland SachsenhoferAlbi, it was just a remark on the circumstance, that there is a lot of sanding work to do on two 32scale birds. The fit of the Hasegawa kits is near to perfect, but you will have to neaten glue lines and some filling here and there.
I will add some new pictures when finished with that.

Albi Hitz... Ah thank you Roland. I was a little surprised about the words "lot" and "sanding" in conjunction with "Hasegawa" 😉 ... but you never know these days!

Roland SachsenhoferAfter some time I am going to complete the Ju-87 "Kanonenvogel"- projects before beginning the two Yaks.
Preshading is done and RLM 65 has been applied, the small area of Alclad Aluminum prepares some wear and tear on this areas.
Now on with some masking work!

Roland SachsenhoferRLM 65/70/71 has been applied- one of Gunze Aqueous most delicate and workable colours! You see the surfaces glare under a coat of Gunze clear "gloss": next will be the "EagleCals" decals!
14 January 2014, 19:23
Roland SachsenhoferNew pictures show the surfaces sealed and ready for further wear and tear. I used the Hasegawa kit decals wherever possible- the ones from EagleCal proved to be rather not impressive...
Next step will see all the flaps, canon pods and canopy parts attached!

Christian MeyerhoffHi Roland! Great as allways. You really know how to build Aircrafts.
19 January 2014, 18:56
Roland SachsenhoferHello mates! Thank you very much for this bundle of motivation!
21 January 2014, 06:22
Roland SachsenhoferGot the finishing touches on that model today. Quite a big beast!
Everything went fine, the only trouble was caused by me- I had to fumble a lot to get the headlamp lens into position without ruining the already painted areas around. Next time I will clue and mask that damned part before I start painting!
Very well then, it´s done- I hope you like the pictures!
26 January 2014, 17:51
Christian MeyerhoffGreat work, great pics! The Stuka is one of my all time favourites and You did an excellent Job on it!
26 January 2014, 18:57
Wim van der LuijtIt looks so mean with the big guns....again a suberb build from you!
26 January 2014, 21:58
Albi HitzSuperb work Roland!
I like the interior the most. Awesome!
I like the dusty look of the camouflage as well ... it looks "real".
26 January 2014, 22:04
Aghis BarberopoulosI like the result. Personally I would do a bit more fading and would make it downright dirty..., but it is a very good piece of model work just the same. Now where is the crew ? 🙂
27 January 2014, 18:05
Roland SachsenhoferThank you Aghis, I will thoroughly consider your suggestion for the next Ju-87 on the bench! This time with naked Jumo and in heavy muddy and winterly condition...
Crew has gone for lunch 🙂

Spanjaardi found this one via gorbygould album on another Ju87, really fantastic models Roland! i will keep this as reference!

Rui SI don't know how I missed this beautiful bird. Congratulations, Roland 👍
Looking forward to see theone in "winterly condition".😎
27 February 2017, 12:14
Roland SachsenhoferThat´s very kind, thank you both!
Still have a half-finished "G-2" on my "already begun" shelf.... your comments make me consider bringing this one to an end 🙂
28 February 2017, 09:58
Rui SHi Roland,
I have a Revell Stuka in my stash, and as said I would like very much to follow yours in the winter camo.
28 February 2017, 12:12
Roland SachsenhoferWith those replays I feel motivated to get my half build Ju-87 G to an happy end- coated in dirt and winter-camouflage of course 🙂 Thank you!

Album info
Two of Hasegawas big Ju 87G will be built, one displaying Verlindens Resin Junkers Jumo 211 and a very dirty winter camo, the other with an uncommon but attractive orange strip on the cowling.
