and ... erm ... this:

aquariumpumpe.jpg


muppy and chuk know what i'm up to with that gadget! something very, very special! :mpup

i hope that i will do your all expectations justice, promise to try my very best to obtain the best result possible and want to warn all of you that i surely will ask stupid questions from time to time since my knowledge on the ju88 is very limited!

tally ho!
 
Just can't wait can ya? I really had no idea how big that thing is. This is going to be great!

Be sure to check your color references with Eds color zoom stuff. I found out later than the Wildcat color stuff was incorrect. Also know that the self adhesive stuff sucks. soak it in lacquer thinner and it will be gone. the lacquer thinner has no effect on the paint. I don't know what they used but nothing seems to effect it. Of course test that before taking my word for it, you could have a different lacquer thinner than I do or they could have changed up their paint.
 
i have no lacquer thinner bob but i intended to ca glue the pe in place anyway! B)

OK, this will be cool, but what the .... an aquarium air pump ???? no idea ??!??

i presume that you know modellversium.de ... the solution to this conundrum can be found on modellversium! if this will work out and i don't mess the bomber up the final result will be cool!
 
:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Oh My God!! (note the subtle sound of me slinking off to hide in the knitting corner)

I promise I'll never tease Laura about building a plane ever again!!
 
I can't say for sure but maybe acetone can remove the glue. I would strongly suggest removing that glue before using any others.

Greg we've been plotting this since about August.
 
thanks for the tip bob!

EDIT: good news! after inspecting the pe i can report that the parts aren't the self adhesive type! classic gluing!

KICKOFF! ADLERTAG!

ok ... the obligatory date/time shot! since today's a public holiday there's no newspaper available and i had to use the timestamp of the "der spiegel" homepage!

first time that it was easier to place the laptop inside the kitbox than to arrange the unbuilt kit around the newspaper! :silly:
