Oblt. Tober's Ju 88 C-6 with Schräge Musik

[Skyraider3D]

A couple of renders I did last week. It's a Ju 88 C-6 of 8./NJG2. Oblt. Friedrich Tober was shot down in this aircraft on 30 January 1944 by a P-47 during a daylight mission. Although wounded, Tober survived, but his other crew members didn't.

This particular machine, WNr.750811, was equipped with FuG 220 Lichtenstein C-2, although the stub on the nose suggests it probably replaced an earlier Fug 202 installation. Unlike earlier illustrations of this aircraft, I've chosen to depict it without the gondola. On the crash site photos of this aircraft it appears this machine had the gondola removed, which makes sense given the Schräge Musik installation of two MG 151/20 cannon. More Experten had their C-6s modified as such.

Camouflage seems to have been a dense RLM 76 mottle over a base of RLM 70/71/65.

It's not fair to us mortals...this is from other dimension CONGRATS!

Sir...

Though I'm not an active member, these two pics really urge me to post. The renders are AWESOME, really nice. What software do you use?

Not bad but you really should stop using MS paint and upgrade to Deluxe Paint

Thanks very much!

Peter, yes another dimension that's true! A very time consuming one unfortunately...

Dutcheeseblend, I appreciate your post! I use 3DSMax. I think I left MS Paint in the 20th Century, Inky!

TOPS! Great stuff, in some ways better than the original. Thanks for posting

I love this stuff!

I often regret not going further down the 3D path than I did back in the day. It appeals to my love of pointless detail.

Extremely detailed wheel bays but then make renders with the gear up and doors closed? Great work Ronnie! You planning more Luftwaffe nightfighters?
