Gordon SørensenGreat looking little dio, Daniel! The cockpit of the SM.82 looks great, and so does the Blitz!

Daniel KlinkThank you Guys for your kid words. I hope to finish the projekt within the next 4 weeks.
Ther are only a few things left to do but these little things left to do- often costs most of the total time 🙂

Daniel KlinkHey Alec, thank you and yes fascinating operation and history with all the logistical challenges etc.
This will be finished after the shidenkai. The 4 weeks from March this year were too optimistic 🙂

TreehuggerThe fourth photo looks stunning imo. There is all this detail in the canopy glass, and then the depth, and then the different scales to things with the large airplane and the smaller things around it. 🙂 And the dark shadow under the plane and the bus is a very nice touch.

Daniel KlinkWoah, Thanks mates, much appreciated.. The new base is in progress👍

Łukasz GlińskiAwesome, pic 5 looks like a real photo (the only hint is the colour 🙂 )

Daniel KlinkThank you for your motivating and kind words chaps 👍
@Greg new is the wrong word . It gets an nearly complete refurbishment becaus ut is 2 years old by now and i used it for transportation. To fix the plane and things on it i used toothpicks. Too many holes showed off 🙂 And it will become a wooden Frame and a bit more vegetation and some colour treatment.

Daniel Klink@Lukasz black and white gives it a special touch thank you mate.
But the exhausts are missing 🙂

Daniel KlinkThe Black Boys in summer outfit! The figures of Zvezda are not that bad.
But one of them took a shower in old oil as it looks. Macro is incorruptible 🙁

Alex-Ovidiu MihailescuTop notch ! Love the scene ! What do you think about the Roden Blitz? Although I've seen a lot of positive reviews , some people who have actually built it are not so pleased. Thanks! Frohe Weihnachten!

Daniel KlinkThank you mates! Much appreciated
@Alex Many thanks for your kind words. The Roden Blitz is very good in Detail and overall fit.
But especially the Bus versions goot some really evident fit issues between Cabin and Roof.
With mine there were also big differents in Materialthickness in this area.
You have to do a lot of dryfit and sanding there, which i did not enough.
So i decided to cover the worst part with the tarpaulin from the Black Box set.
It is a fine kit after all. I have 2 additional of them in my stash and next time i know the issues😉

Holger KranichWow, very nice Daniel! How could i missed this? The paratroopers look nice, are they from Preiser?
9 March 2019, 11:14
Daniel KlinkHi folks, thank you for your very nice comments.. there are only a few things left to fix with this scene.
Just waiting for the material.
@Holger glas you finally found it and thanks mate👍 Yes these are the Preiser figures, they are still in progress by now.
@Stephan Thank you the kit of the SM 82 was not real fun but i am glad with the result.
@Erik Glad you like it 👍
@Greg you can also call me "Tiescher" 😉 Thank you SIr👍

Daniel KlinkThank you very much Clifford and Nathan👍
Yes it is really a big plane. And easy prey for the experienced MTO squadrons once detected.🙂

Cristian BordinaCongrats Daniel I like it very much... also in "wrong colors" (I'm italian ahahah)
18 May 2020, 14:27
Daniel KlinkThank you Dave and Christian...
This thing looks impressive in any color btw. 🙂
19 May 2020, 20:21
Rui SI agree, really great work alround but I really like the SM.82 Canguro weathering 👍 Also the B.W. photos😉
17 March 2021, 20:26
Daniel KlinkThank youGuy, Erik and Rui for your kind words feels good 👍
Just added a pic that i found ..
@Rui yes, i also llike the outcome. Those Aircraft were exposed most of the tim to heat, Dust and sunshine.. Glad you like the effect 👍

Dietmar BogatzkiFantastic Job, Daniel, the Plane, the Dio, the Weathering and the Photos 👍 👍 👍
18 March 2021, 07:53
Urban GardiniNice work but it's cheating to build an Italian bird in Luftwaffe colours😉
18 March 2021, 13:07
Daniel KlinkThank you Urban, the Bomber Version will be italian?
The colors are italian btw🙂
18 March 2021, 13:26
Daniel KlinkDanke schön Zsolt!!
Compared to your small masterpiecs these words are very appreciated 👍

Lochsa Riverlook at all the dudes it takes to keep just this one weapon of war serviced....modeled here in some historical detail by Daniel....and, no doubt, abandoned as junk soon after the war was over...
so, they "conquered" Crete, did they? Was this installation still in place June 6, 1944?
back then, it is clear, some in the United States were tempted to think of all of Europe as educated fools, going to war over nothing....twice....1915 and 1939

Album info
This project should show a typical Loading scene of a SM.82 Canguro, the Transportversion of the Marsupiale Bomber, which was widely used by the Luftwaffe in the Mediteranean and North African Theatre.
It is situated around May 1942 at Heraklion (Crete)
The kit is the Italeri one, which is not a simple Build (fit and some material issues). The figures are a mix up from Zvezda, Preiser and Revell.
The Opel Blitz is from Roden.
