My latest build and it's...
... a Stuka. Sorry, guys. A bad back, allergies and a bout with food poisoning have forced me back into my comfort zone. This one is the Africa Korps Trop repaint of the Marek kit by Sergey, available at Ecardmodels.com. I added some weathering, but for some reason I lost a good portion of it in the printing. It also came out a little more orange than tan.
 I did my usual trick of building the wings nicely, then crushing them while handling the model during the rest of the build. :o Not sure if the Afrika Korps used B's or R's, but I built this one as an R version. One more JU-87 for the Wall. Chris

Turned out very nice
 Congrats!You could try to laminate wings to make them stronger (only upper and lower side, nothing on the leading edges). This method may require sanding formers to accommodate extra cardstock, but at least the wings could be groped as much as you like:D

Or you can just laminate spaces between the formers - that's what I usually do for exactly the same reason
 BTW - pretty darn good Stuka. Now, if somebody did A variant I might be interested in it's Japanese incarnation.....
