This is
my 1/48 Hasegawa Henschel Hs-129 B2 . This aircraft was assigned to
8.Pz/Sch.G1 in the eastern front during the spring
of 1943. The “Red J”
flown
by Lt. Rudolf Heinz Ruffer -a
Knight’s Cross holder- was
lost to Soviet ground fire on 27 May 1943.
The model
is built mostly out of the box. I started with the cockpit.
The cockpit
elements are painted to RLM 66. The cockpit built by adding PE
seat belts from Eduard as usual.

Painting was
done with Gunze Sangyo acrylics. Upper surfaces are painted to RLM
70 / RLM 71 and the lower surfaces to RLM 65.
The decals are from the
box.
It' s finished by using a matt coat from Gunze after
some artist oil paint weathering.
Happy modelling
