Here's another of my WIPs waiting for a few parts I ordered.

Opened up the top hatch and the stbd. loading doors.

Lots of detail in that kit.  Which is it and what scale?  I want to do a ju52 but was always concerned about the corrugated surface and seams.  Edwards kit looks engineered to avoid it.

Thanks,

John

John, it's Monograms kit, #5612, 1/48 scale. 

The main fuselage is an easy fit. The sides go together with no fit problems and the corrugated surface lines up perfectly as long as you are not heavy handed with your glue. With Tamiya Extra Thin, you will have NO seams showing on the fuselage. When adding the rest of the parts, I've had no problems (yet, knock on wood). Wish all my builds were this easy.

Good luck with yours.
