Hi Daniel,
Nice job!
I have this kit and have built the Ju 88, basically the same model. Any tips and problems with this kit?
the kit has a few minor issues, but nothing that can't easily be overcome.
I have built 3 variants of it. the biggest issue is fitting the wingtips - you can get a pretty serious step there. best to put the wingtip halves on the wings halves first then put the wings together. you will have to sand and/or fill the mating surfaces on the leading edge, but this is much better than dealing with a step in the top and bottom of the wing.
The engine nacelles can also take a bit of work, but again, pre-planning and test fitting solve all problems here.
Same story with the canopy.
It is a good kit really, but it has a bit of a reputation for being difficult to deal with that I think is undeserved.
Nice work on this 188 Daniel!
