Junkers G38 from Schreiber-Bogen 1/100th Scale

[smithdr]

In my never ending quest to put off the Halinski Wespe, here is another intriguing model I bought at the International Paper Model Meeting a couple of years ago. I've never made a model from this manufacturer and the numbering, style and construction are new to me. Lots of box spars folded together and nice numbering to help placement. So far, seems really neat. I got the main wing panels done and will keep plugging away.


Cool stuff...Dan

Hi Dan, Schreiber is very well-known publisher with great models. I built a few models in a period where I was building aimlessly (always starting a model but never finishing one - before I joined this forum ), such as the 1:50 Swissair DC-7 and a few castles and these models didn't stand the test of time. I find the paper just a bit too thin and the level of detail can be higher. However, the latest models, especially the architectural ones, are of beautiful texture, and really worth a go. In any case, you will enjoy this one!

Cheers,
Erik

Should be interesting to watch. Even at 1/100, that is a large model.

Nice to see, is a rare model to see build.

Great start on another fascinating project, Dad. I will enjoyh watching this big airplane take shape.

Thanks, Folks...this would be a beast in 1/33rd! My wife would kill me. As Ray says, it's still pretty big in 1:100th. It looks darn cool too. It will make a nice addition.
