​

A new set of scale plans, number 58 in this series from MMP. This time we have a Luftwaffe subject, the Ju 88 A.  A softcover book with 3 pages, each of which folds out, and to give you an idea, each one is equivalent of 4x pages of A4 side by side.  Printed on both sides, we are presented with topside and underside views, along with side views of the late Ju 88 A-4, Ju 88 A-4 Torp, a field modification with  MG-FF cannon and exhaust covers and another fitted with the FuG 200 Hohentwiel radar variants.  Add detail of fuselage profiles, engine cowlings , plan views and there is plenty to find.

One of the things about these drawings, as well as being ideal for any modeller interested in scratchbuilding their own example, as well as checking a plastic kit.  For me it shows how large a 1/32 model of a Ju 88 will be.  Bags of potential for some beautiful models, though I still wonder how many modellers have the space for a collection of models in this large scale.

​

Another handy addition to the series from MMP.
