[WWI] Painting the big Junkers

One thing I have used in the past is white wood-working glue.

Hi,

The Wingnuts kits are tempting me, and I can't decide between the Junkers and the LVG.

I'm leaning towards the Junkers, but 1 thing has me worried, and that is the masking on the corrugated and riveted surfaces.

How are modellers like Ray Rimell doing it?

I have had problems using all kinds of masking tapes on even flatish surfaces, and I can see that I'd have no end of trouble with the Junkers and tape.

Would blu-tak be piliable enough to get into the tight spaces, or would a liquid mask be required?  If so which one?

How is everyone else planning on tackling this?

TIA
