Beautiful job Boats!! Watch out for those flaps or ailerons or whatever they're called on a Junkers. I made that kit a few years ago and they were difficult. A very delicate connection with not much area for the glue to hold onto. I bet I've glued them back on 10 times in the 4 years since I built it!

Same here on the two I've done.
Great job on a good kit, I loved my first enough, (military version that I changed into a Lufthansa), that I had to get this kit when it came out. The red scheme is difficult but not impossible, and with your skill, I can't wait for the finish!

Really beaut job Boats. Masking on that corrugated surface is like trying to find a good looking Hippocroccofrog!
