Stuka Dive Bomber Custom Stand **UPDATED PICTURES**

I forgot to post this the other day when i got busy with other things around here.
I made a custom stand for the Corgi Hans Rudel Stuka's i have ...I just didn't like the stands that came with these so i made my own.
Wanted it to be in a dive mode too...So i made one out of plexiglass glass scraps i had laying around and painted it flat black then i used a medium green foliage on the base to make it look different and 2 hollow rods one is at 6" and the other at 5" to support the 1/8 size tube rod to hold the planes.
Now i need to make one for my SBD i have..

Re: Stuka Dive Bomber Custom Stand

Looks great but its too late for them to pull up. If I may suggest. Go with the railroad lawn material so it looks to scale. You could even square off areas to repaint so it looks like seperate fields/plots of ground. Look forward to the SBD stands.

Starman, great set up. I might just give this a try myself.
