    Just a small update.

    I put the cockpit together but didn't add the engine/control levers on the side of it as they were far to fiddly for me at this point (slight medical problem with hands). But I don't think it detracts from it at all. Also added the wiring to the instrument panel. Not sure you'll see it when it's all built up but hey, i'll know it's there

      Hi Al

      This is coming along great. The office looks fabulous with some superb detail.

      That paint scheme wil rove challenging.

      Looking forward to the progress.

      Cheers

      Paul

        Certainly will be testing Paul

        Just putting the wings on and although I had be warned by previous reviews, the gaps and step at the wingtips and wing roots are terrible. Will get some pics when they dry

                  Nice work in that cockpit.The instrument panel wiring will look great viewed through the nose transparency.

                      I'm hoping it will be visable when the glass is on. If not then i'll know it's there at least lol

                        Here are the pics of the gaps as stated above. Not a total disaster but still a pain. On a side note the plastic is soft so doesn't take a lot of work to remove it should you need to.

                            Note to self: Always make the insert "before" you put the whole thing together. Makes it so much easier to make and shape. Still I got there in the end. I used 0.75mm plastic card to make it.

                            The lower gondola on this particular Ju88 A17 has it removed. Hence why I had to make the insert as the kit comes with the gondola meant to be fitted.

                              Nice progress Al, if you happen to build another version of this kit glue the wing tips on first ,then join the wing halves and you'll avoid that gap. Sorry I did'nt mention it before I forgot until I saw the pics.
