This is the JU87G-2 Stuka "Kanonen Vogel" from Academy.
Built out of the box, some weathering and lining.
Satin varnish at present, but may change to matt?
Looking great - now get back to cooking and cleaning hohohhoho

Yes, sir, will do.
Been shopping, made lunch, done the washing and been to the allotment so far today, no rest for the wicked, I must be particularly evil!
The modelling between your chores looks good Dave.
Back to aircraft then, looks a nice build.

Aiming to beat wartime production figures are you......?
Nice job on an ungainly looking aircraft.

For some reason, I really like the shape.
This is the Italeri Ju-87 R2 finished as an Italian(Regia Aeronautica 208 Sq) Stuka 1940
Another Stuka, another good model Dave.
Looks great Zak.
Are those 'splotches' of green on the wing upper surfaces, to represent over painted Balkenkruz?

They are!
There's an article in a recent edition of Scale Aircraft Modeling of a Ju 87 in Regia Aeronautica markings with the Balkankreuz overpainted by the Italians using their green. Nice finish to both aircraft and Luftwaffe a/c had a satin finish so you were correct in using it.
