Thanks Wayne, useful to know. The first kit will be for the belly-landed kite, so I'll not be using the resin exhausts etc. But the seciond kit will be for me, on it's legs, so yes, all and any hints on reiforcing are welcome.
Nice pic Mr.G.

Nice pics Gutt and Paul, and great work so far Wayne....

 

[piet]

the resin exhausts look real nice!!

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Guys!

Port Resin wingtip...prepared for attachment after both surfaces sanded flat and matched up....decided that a straight butt joint would not do the job...one knock and the wigtip could be a problem...would never get it back and right if it broke off after the fact so reinforced tongue in groove to do the job!!

This kits going to end up a solid as the Rock of Gibraltar, nice work Wayne and again, thanks for the tips

Way to go Wayne!

Nice work Wayne, and good plan on the reinforcing - surprised the parts didn't have at least a lip or tongue.

 

[Heinz]

This kit is going to be a great model and piece of civil engineering when its finished Wayne

Have to Agree with Alex nice work mate

 

[Wayne Little]

some more progress at the other end....there are 'dobs' of super glue re-inforcing the tail wheel assembly too on the top sides of each attachment point so they are not visible from the bottom but provide that extra strength!

Dry fitted the fuselage to check fit....

 

[B-17engineer]

Beautiful!

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Harrison!

 

[109ROAMING]

Beaut bit of progress mate

 

[Heinz]

Great stuff Wayne. Got a copy of Flypast tonight with a full section on Guttorm and his 88! Nice photos in there too.

 

[jamierd]

looks great

 

[Lucky13]

Outstanding work Master Little!

Wow, you guys are getting better at this, sooner or later you wont need me

Riiiight.... Hell will freeze over and the devil will sell tickets for the sleigh rides, before that'll happen Paul!

 

[Crimea_River]

Nice! Keep em coming!

Wayne, what will you use to glue the long seams on the fuselage? I've been using "Pro-weld" which is brushed on over the dry-fitted seam and seeps in to make the bond. Nice and fast but I'm not sure of the strength.

It's a M.T.O. Group Build, not just for JU88's.
Nice work so far Wayne. Should be starting on mine for the Czech Museum very soon.
