Title: Ju 88
Post by: Greebo on February 14, 2005, 01:26:34 PM

I was thinking of doing the Ju 88 for my next project, since it has some interesting variations on the standard scheme. There's tropical, winter, Romanian, Hungarian and I've also found a wave pattern scheme that might work, despite the skin's stretched areas.

Before I start though, is there anyone already working on the 88? Couldn't see anything in the last few pages of the under construction thread, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

I have some Finnish friends that would worship the ground you walk on if you did a Finnish Ju88. :)

Greebo, we really need Finnish Ju88 to our becoming Finland CT- and SEA map! Wait a minute, WMaker is sending couple of reference photos and profiles here!

Finnish Junnu's (Ju88) are very exotic looking with our own camouflages! ;)

OK, thanks everbody, Ju 88 it is then. I've mapped most of the bugs, the biggest one is under the wings. It shares one panel for both sides, so letters appear mirror imaged on one wing. Also the panels are out of alignment, so one side's panel lines will not line up properly. There's lots of stretching underneath too, so wellenmuster schemes won't work on the undersides.

I'll start with a Finnish aircraft and a desert one is also a cert, any information you guys can dig up on 88s will be appreciated. The more unusual the scheme, the better.

That's from 2./Lentolaivue 44 (or at least was in June 1944).

Greebo, great news!

I'll scan and send you the references tomorrow. The paint scheme is basically same as in the picture above. You've made skins with an awesome quality, looking forward to this one. :)

EDIT/Btw, what's your E-mail Greebo? I'll send them straight to you./EDIT
