Got the Airfix red box of this ,I like it had fun building it . Got the Airfix FW190 1\24 nice kit and engine but not a very good fit plenty of gaps but for its age also a good kit👍👍.
Oh dear the dreaded Stuka canopy split, I had the same issue with a Revell Stuka I built few years ago, and it split up the centre of canopy frame , I just glued it together again with TeT and once it was painted you would never know it had been broken . Look forward to this build Nigel 👍
I've got a pair of the Trumpeter 1/24 Stukas, but one of my friends built the Airfix version. He had a massive short-shot on one of the engine halves. You have the 1996 boxing, according to Scalemates.
It's wot I call mid production nigel still got the original I was bought as a present when I was a kid in bob colors then your boxing bob and desart colors then the rebox in the new airfix plastic and a reprint off the original box decals done by cartograph the splinter camo was hardedge
Nice video. The brown box goes nicely with the adverts for Love Honey and the free toys they’re apparently giving away in adverts on your videos. I look forward to the build of this.
Excellent prezzie for a build 💥👍💥
The one I built in the mid 70's has the option with the snake on the side. I think this was the original

Stuka Sunday sounds good.

I’ll be watching the build with interest, I’ve got one on my shelf as a newbie it will be good to build along.
I vote for the Libya scheme Nige. How about a simple desert airfield base? Something different to try.
Stuka Sunday sounds interesting. I have the Heller boxing of this Airfix kit sitting in my stash. It has been there so long it has its own postcode. 😆
1996 looks to be the year nigel
Hi Nigel ive got one in my ever increasing in size stash as well so looking forward to stuka sundays!
It’s karma Nigel. You get what you give.👍

Nice score !
Yes it was!
That’s a bugger the canopy’s broken
With the fact that Airfix have just re-released this kit. I cant understand why Airfix say they don't have any spare parts Nigel?
My thoughts exactly!!
@@NigelsModellingBench Bet if you had bought it recently direct from Airfix, they would find some clear parts lol.
Hi, what's your view on using swastikas because they aren't included in WW2 German aircraft kits?
They were on the original Aircraft, so I think they should be there on Models.
On aircraft it's supposed to be hard or rigid spray lines.
I was told this by Allen Ross, he had photos from the National Archives.
I never knew you had a Harley!
Yeah, 883 iron.
Dear Nigel, has anyone told you what is wrong with the Hobby Boss 1/48 scale B-24J? Hint look at the engines.
