One thing that has been lacking for Ju-88 fans, have been some new decals. Superscale has taken care of that with this new release. This particular sheet covers two aircraft and has a full insignia suite for both aircraft. One thing about these early bombers is that they were all pretty well standard paint schemes of RLM 70/71 uppers and RLM 65 lowers. These are no exceptions. Superscale provides a painting guide showing upper surfaces and both sides so that you can do a proper job of the splinter camo.

The top aircraft is from 1./KG 54 'Totenkopf' (Death Head), and that markings is prominently displayed on the nose of this Ju-88A-1. You'll have to do some modification to your kit of choice (i.e. ProModeler/Dragon) as the A-1 had shorter wings.

The Ju-88A-4 from 6./KG 3 'Blitz' (Lightning) is from the Russian front so has a yellow fuselage band and yellow under the wing tips to add some color. Spinners are also yellow.

Which ever scheme is chosen will look good on your next '88'.

This sheet has been cropped a bit to eliminate some common markings to save a bit on server space.
