Default RE: Junkers JU-52 How to corrigated metal

On small areas, such as control surfaces, I’ve used strips of balsa glued to sheeting to simulate the corrugated metal. That sure would be a daunting task on the JU. I’ve also looked into using the plastic sheeting material that simulates corrugated siding or roofing used in model buildings but it didn’t fit the scale I was working in. I have seen a JU52 with all corrugated surfaces fabricated out of fiberglass. I think it was purchased from some outfit in Germany. If interested I’ll see if I can locate the supplier.

Miles.
