Revell 1/72 Heinkel He 177 A-5

[xAlex666]

Hey Guys,

third Post in this Forum, so please forgive me my mistakes.

First group build for me

I don't know how to start.

So first i'm going to build a Revell He 177 A-5 in 1/72
I only built a few other Models, i dont have much tools and experience, but i'm trying my best
and i hope i can learn a lot.

So enough written
Here are some pictures

"Box Art"


"Decal sheet"


"Sprues"









I got some pictures of the instruction sheet.

Should i post them all? Or just some of them?

Great choice of aircraft, always liked the look of the Greif.

Nice looking kit dude.

That glass is going to take a fair bit of masking lol.

Pics of the instructions are always nice.

Hey Guys,

Yes i think masking the glass is going to kill me.
I've never done it before.


Here the pics of the instruction

First Page:



Some background information and specifications

Funny thing about this
It says Armament:
max. 3 Fritz X
one MG 81 and MG151/20 in Nose
two MG 131 in B1 and B2 dorsal turrets

But i didn't found Fritz X in this kit, only 6x 1000 SC bombs.
And i have to look up if the rest of the Armament is correct, because there were a lot of different Versions,
most were in field constructions.

Second page:


A sprue overview



Eleven pages with construction steps:













and last page the paint scheme:



Only in black and white

So here a coloured version from the Internet:




That's all for now

Maybe tomorrow I will make a little history lesson

Looking forward to the next update dude.

How is this one coming along?

Good luck with the build, I done this kit last year and I loved it, it's a great kit
