Title: 1/72 Airfix JU52
Post by: Mr. Bill on 31 Dec , 2020, 14:59
 Greetings!
 Another old Airfix kit - this time the classic JU52.   Out of the box build with a few minor enhancements.  Poor fit in many areas, especially landing gear!  Maybe I should have done the float plane version.  Decals were the most challenging part of this build - the corrugated surfaces are not very decal friendly.  Kit decals were very old and unusable, so I used the PrintScale set 72-075 which finally worked with repeated applications of decal solution.  Paint scheme is from the PrintScale decal painting guide.  I think the actual machine may have had a splinter pattern?  Had a mental lapse and forgot to mask the side windows before spraying clear flat coat so they are a bit fuzzy looking!  Many thanks for having a look,  comments and questions always welcome.
 Happy New Year!
Bill
