As I am covid positive (fortunately only with very mild syntomas) I had some time to build again today. So far I am positively surprised by the accuracy of fit. There are no locator pins, but I can now click the fuselage and cockpit together and even the tail section holds without glue.

The crew have bailed out. But they both shut the canopy before leaping away. Both very considerate and daring!

Well done mate! Love the paint scheme and presentation 👌

Very nice and innovative build. Really like the paint scheme. Could i ask where you found the paint scheme or is it a fictional one?

Awesome build my friend🤩 Don't let the insincere comments get you down. Brush aside those shills! I've seen this paint scheme on many publications so you have done your research! You rock!

Thanks for all the comment!
@Trez: I would love to have crews for my planes, but it's rare. Border Model doesn't give you one with this kit just a standing Rudel as extra and in general it's quite rare to get pilots and gunners. But I do like my planes in flight, so I rather have them in flight without crew, than on the ground. As I would call it "the sitting duck position".
@Alan G: It's a scheme found on the old 1/72 Matchbox kit. I did build that when I was a kid and I just felt like redoing it with this one.

@RoguePlastic: No offence given.
This is the problem with having 1/35 scale - there are very few if any seated pilots! So I can see why you have resorted to "the flying turkey pose". Nothing wrong with artistic flair👍

Thanks for replying regarding the paint scheme. I'll have to try and find the unit and a picture of it now. I'd like to have a bash at doing this.

Well, don't let anyone stop you! Maybe you can get the matchbox kit for reference?

@Alan G: The paint scheme on the Matchbox kit is for a D3 version, so this build of mine is really an "artistic flare" as others would say. I haven't seen any images of this kind of camo on a G1/G2.
The reference on the Matchbox kit is JU 87/D3. 1/St.G2. "Immelmann" Russian Front 1943/44, with the id T6+BH.
Hope this helps finding it.

This pant scheme never existed but it's a great what if pilotless build!
But most kits are modelled sitting on an airfield - especially when there is no one flying it!

Or was never photographed. We have no clue what camo schemas the ground crew applied on each and every airplane. Especially washable white, which we all know was just temporary.
The underlying camo paint is the default one though. So that existed.
Granted, the identification number is completely fabricated and has been applied wrong anyway. as the right side should've been the other way around and not mirrored.
On the other hand, I am tired to see yet another Rudel Stuka, so I did this.
It's like getting a flaming skull tattoo. You think you get something unique and then you see 10 other people having the same skull on the street.

If I could build a kit that well I would not feel compelled to apologize or explain away anything. Love the camo scheme and presentation. Any chance we could get some close-up pics of the interior?

@Soeren R.
Thank you!
The outside is gorgeous with all the rivet detail and the fit is almost perfect.
The inside is lackluster. No harnesses, the control stick is completely wrong, the rear turret is not that great either. The instructions are vague, no color call outs, No decal instructions. Overall bad instructions. But this is something I noticed with Border Model kits. The things they do well, they do it really good. The things they miss or do bad, they are really bad.
So overall I would say it's a strong middle. The good parts are exceptional, but the bad parts do weigh it down. If you're going to build it, I would recommend doing research on it and for decal positions I recommend using other kit instructions, like the Trumpeter 1/24 one.
@Doubtingmango
Thank you! Your kits look great as well!
Sadly the cockpit is all closed up, but you can check out the build videos of it on my YouTube channel about the build if you want to see the insides, the last one should be up soon as well.

I'd love to see a regular version of this, with the rusted wheel arches and dented bumpers. Back in the late 70's, early 80's, this car was the most popular choice, for the teenage Brit. They needed more bodywork, than Cher!

Nice Daniel.Thought the rear leaf springs would have had a little bit more bend.Looks as though they are under load.

From memory, David, the rear end of the escort, was always a bit low, and definitely sloppy? But maybe these rally versions had slightly uprated suspension, causing the front to look a tad higher? I certainly remember mine fishtail a few times, but back in them days, I drove it, like I'd stole it! I nearly had my hands on a MK1 Mexico, once. No engine, but the body was perfect. Loved those flared arches. It even had the roll cage! I'd dread to think, how much that would be now? It was £100 at the time 😮

Daniel, that stance looks pretty much correct, from my memory? I'm sure that Munky would have something to add?
However, I'm loving how this build is coming along, and it brings back so many memories. Excellent work buddy, and may the decals gods, shine in your favour 100%

Hi Daniel, yep Boz is pretty much bang on the money there……. the solid rear axles on Mk1 & Mk2 Escorts had very stiff multilleaf competition springs with the bias toward rear weight distribution to maximise traction.
That coupled with the extra travel of the front coil springs & struts necessary to cope with intense terrain gives that classic arse down, nose up stance that looks so Kool 😎
