A surprisingly good kit by ICM, this Junkers 88A-5 bomber was fun to build. Feel free to leave a comment, whether you like it or not.

Sorry to hear that but not terribly surprised tbh . I've built 4 -C6s from Dragon and Revell kits as well as other versions and, for their "issues", all turned out well . The one ICM kit i built - bought with great excitement the day it arrived in the shop - was a great disappointment. Poor fit wasn't much of an issue, more incorrect (or omission of) detail . Mine is an -A5 converted to a -C4 . I was curious to see if ICMs -C6 was any better but suspected it would have many of the same errors as the one i built .

I started the C-6 night fighter version of this ICM kit and gave up in absolute disgust. The plastic was very soft, parts were ill fitting(short shotted), and seam lines that just wouldn't disappear(soft plastic). To anyone attempting the night fighter- be afraid, be very afraid. However kudos on your A-4 build. Definite two thumbs up!
@wbpsmodels34523 жыл бұрын
it's A5 but thank you nonetheless! :) by the way, the plastic was rather soft in this model too, but I consider this to be a plus: easier to clean from flash and more bendy. At any rate, thank you again!

@@joemurphy601 A mate of mine also started the kit at the same time I did and he had exactly the same issues, so it's the kit not the builder.😊 I look at all the other ICM nightfigter kits I'd like to build but the C-6 has scared me off. I'd prefer a 90's era Dragon C-6 than the ICM kit. 😁 Cheers

I bought the -A5 the day it appeared in my local shop and was disappointed within minutes of opening the box . It has far too many details that are either incorrect or absent altogether . I converted mine to a -C4 fighter ; it turned out ok but as a kit is not a patch on the old Dragon/Revell kits .

Great job! I love the Ju-88. Germany's all around aircraft. Where is the Swastika on the vertical stabilizer? I always include that. I know that there are sensitive people and feelings, but to be historically correct, there should be all the markings.
@wbpsmodels34523 жыл бұрын
To be frank, there was no swastika in the decal sheet... and I didn't go out of my way to create one, even if admittedly I should. On the other hand, a post of my 1:32 BF 109 (which DID include a swastika and was made a few months after the Ju88 ) was banned from some pages where it was posted due to that reason... Therefore, although I agree that historically it is proper to have that symbol in the rudder, I decided that even if I use such symbol, it will be attached after the video is uploaded, for my personal collection only. At any rate, thank you for watching :)

Very nice kit but unfortunately a lot of time the fine details like those seats are lost to the eye when the fuselage halves are put together. I built a 1/32 Tamiya P-51D and I detailed the cockpit but it's very hard to see unless you eyeball it REAL close. Nice work.

@Jim Goose try being a woketard? No thanks. Sooner be called racist, ignorant, bigot, mysogynist, and all the other now meaningless insults than become blinkered to what the wokey-revolution is all about. You play the minion by all means, and good luck, but as much as you surely champion the rights of every minority on every bandwagon so that you can assume the moral high-ground in some kind of self-affirmation, self-congratulatory, faux-intelligencia kind of way, I'm choosing not to be such a minion. That'll be unacceptable to your superior self, because it's not an "acceptable" minority, nor "acceptable" thought. Have an opinion as long as it is the right opinion!! I guess that's where your wokery stops and your hypocrisy starts; it always does. Being brow-beaten into what to think leads to the kind of regime that my OP was about, ironically. Best wishes, Jim. I really mean it.
