1:48 Junkers D.1

[Cherrylock]

Here is my Roden Junkers D.1, it was the beginning of Junkers metal aircrafts, it has a good restitance aginst bad wether conditions and a good stanging when enemy fire make hooles th the fuselage..but it was a heavy aircraft, so it was too slow and not agil enought.

The kit is real good, need th keep some atention to the wing front edge and has terrible hard decals, with this profiled structure it is a big problem, take micro sol, but does not help, so thanks to the tip with laquier thinner, it was ok.

Looks like you could have used some decal setting solution on some of them cals to get em snuggled in those corrugations...

thanks manny, I used micro sol, but this helped not much, so I remeberd Montys tip and used universal thinner, the same thinner I use for revell colors, and it worked better, but on some points the the thinner was to aggressive to the decals and I have to paint tis issue, was the first time .
