Great looking models, SV! The Stuka was the first airplane model I put together in the late 1950's (Revell, Monogram, Airfix - can't remember).

Cool.
Yeah, a Stuka was one of the first Airfix models I ever constructed - and painted! Most never got round to seeing paint :(
Great work! I've always loved the Stuka, possibly because I used to have a die cast model that could drop a bomb, with the added bonus of having the ability to put a cap in it to make it go bang. Many happy memories of dive bombing stuff, but invariably missing.
Good job!
I like that zvezda stuka. I have one and it's a great kit.
Shame zvezda decided to make those airplane kits in different scales. That's one thing that put me off from buying their art of tactics game. Troops in 1/72, tanks in 1/100 and planes in 1/144 and 1/200. Really annoying for me to have different scales in the same game.
It bugged me in memoir as well!
Great job

Many thanks for the feedback comrades :)
Ended up with two Stukas, the other one's supporting 1/72 DAK troops. These two are for use with a 10mm Armoured Division 1940.
The two projects I set myself had a series of small forces in 1/72 and a series of larger forces in 10mm. Both had to have air support so the knotty problem of scale inevitably cropped up. Some of the 1/72s have 1/72 aircraft which are big fragile models, so anything bigger than a single engne fighter was out of the question. Just not a practical size for my use as I'm not after model aircraft per se. 1/44 is ideal for my purposes, looks not bad with 1/72 and fits well with 10mm. It certainly makes the larger aircraft a practical possibility for me.
What I'm after is a Bf 110 in 1/144 or 1/200 at a sensible price (come on Zvezda!).
Flames of war has them in 1/144.
There's a painted one on ebay. I'll pm you the link.
