Junkers D.I part deux

[StephenLawson]

Greetings all;

Recently I acquired another 1/48 Roden Junkers D.I and remembered wanting to do a detailed go at some girders and trusses.

The first go around.

As things clear up around my desk with the two 1/32 kits I am hammering away at , I may need this little jewel to have some light fun with. Almost a year has gone by.

Yes I have some images but most are in the Air Enthusiast article. I have acquired several that are not. I also have a fellow in Europe that has a few that he will trade me for. So we will hopefully pull a hat trick!

Don't forget the other 1/48 Roden Junkers D.I build on the Models title. Our own Brad Cancian did this bird in his usual fine fashion. Its a nice kit I wonder why no one else has built one up?

I was all ways going to scratch build one, but i cant make up my mind on the best why to do the corrugations, in the mold or with sprew after.. any way a lot of work.. are you going to expose the inside of the wings??

[StephenLawson]

Here is a tip. I have been told that model rail roading shops like Whalters have corrugated metal in several different scales. Hmmm a derelict Junkers D.I ?
