Junkers G38

Revell 1/144 modified to D-2500 configuration

The wing passenger windows do not fit well, leaving a step where the window aft edge fairs into the wing, and the window wide, as there should be more space
between the window framing and the engine nacelle.  If I do another of these I would use the kit parts for a buck to make a vacform replacement and paint the
window framing in the proper place.   I removed the middle posts and replaced all of the side windows with clear sheet styrene because of sink marks on the kit
parts.  There is a lot of masking to do on this airplane.  The windows on the engine nacelles were sanded smooth and painted nacelle color, and D-2500 did not
have them.   I still have to make some overwing exhausts for the nacelles (someday).  The lower exhausts for the Jumo diesels were removed.
