Laura, it looks real good except for the seams on the tires. Will you be using one of my tricks? Putty smoothed with an alcohol moistened cotton swab is my recommendation. It minimizes sanding and you only need to concentrate on the tread valleys.
I think you are an aircraft modeler all along...
Oh, and thanks for the Mecano song. I remember meeting the lead singer (not in the video) in Manhattan once and she was a nice person. This is something I wish US citizens would do more, look at songs not in English so they can enjoy music from all languages (aside from Opera which still makes me cringe... forced to listen to it as a child and am scarred).
Regards,

don't worry about the tire seams saúl! i haven't sanded anything on the wings yet and will take care of all of them! rest assured! i will keep your tip in mind! sounds very helpful!
you met ana torroja? that's cool!
regarding opera - try to get rid of your fears it with hector berlioz's "the damnation of faust" ... it's a phantastic opera, beautiful music and only two hours long! (nothing compared to wagner!)

Well, I will look into that opera as my wife loves it. Bad enough I had to pay a lot to see ballet and my wife was elbowing me to keep me from snoring. Yes, I am a boor when it comes to these cultural events.
:evil:
Ana was quite 'mousy' in appearance but really a wonderful personality. not to mention that I love the Castillian accent especially when spoken by her voice.
Funny how my friends in the Czech Republic and family in Poland all love Julio Iglesias (his name translates to July Churches
), what about you?

LOL - i can imagine your face when SWMBO will force you in black swan!
but when ballet bores you, try to listen tchaikovsky's 1812 overture as an alternative! that's one of the classic music compositions that beats the shit out of anything!
julio iglesias? bah! i'm more with luciano paravotti!
another recommendation to listen to would be ariel ramirez' 'misa criolla' (the only mass i ever enjoyed in my life! really catchy tunes and fun to listen to!)

I do listen to the Tenors Pavarotti, Domingo, and Carreras as music, not as shows or operas. I amdmit to lving the music of Julio Iglesias and his son, Enrique, before he met Ana Kournikova.
Yet we are moving away from you Ju-88 build! :woohoo:
Misa Criolla from the Cathedral in Argentina performed by the Uruguayan troupe Los Fronterizos... blissful and of course a great way to fill a church. Here in the US, there are many Gospel churches with fabulous music as well.

Now that we're into music (one of the great loves of my life! :dude ), I'd say that it pays off to be eclectic : I love Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven and the lot, but I also listen to The Allman Brothers Band, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Beatles, Jerry Lee Lewis, BB King, Led Zeppelin (IMO the greatest rock band ever! 
), Italian music, Brazilian pop (listen to Caetano Veloso), The Charlie Daniels Band, and most recentently The Blue Band (I was introduced to it by Iron Mike 
). I could go on and on, but I think you guys got the picture. I even listen to opera!
But, puhlease, do not put me in a chair to watch ballet... just not compatible! :pinch: The 1812 Overture is amazing though!
Cheers! B)

Outstanding!!! I'd say Laura has the modeling MoJo today!
Time to paint REAL soon! Then the base, then weathering to tie it all in, then... bliss!

done! at last! finally! i'm through with basic construction ... now some more filling and sanding and then it's time for priming, preshading and painting - then it's returning to my beloved armor!
good news - making the spinners workable worked like a breeze and letting them rotate works also!
bad news - that only works with a lot of air pressure ... with a compressor and a lot of psi! brmpf!
Schneewittchen - Keine Schmerzen

It looks like an angry bug, in other words... perfectly like a Junkers 88! C'mon, admit it... you are having fun.
