			Flyboy,
That is really cool!  Looks good close up in the picture.
Can you make any more of those with the rest of the plane?

			Maybe extend it at each end ~6". Then build an interior and place a couple more guys and 'voila!' instant mini-diorama. The "clouds" allow you to depict just the one section rather than having to fake an entire Ju52.
Definitely something I think you could pull off, judging from your other recent work.

Flyboy,  that looks great! I never would have thought of using corrugated cardboard. 
This would make a cool little dio....... 

  ...maybe not so little.
