Thanks, All...it was a nice build and a plane I've always wanted to see in my collection.


I still can't believe how inexpensive paper models are, how life-like they can be, how much fun they are to put together and how authentic the assembly is to an actual aircraft. Really neat stuff!


Thanks again...Dan

What did you use for the rigging? It looks nice and taunt.

Hi Gary!
Thanks for the encouragement. I use EZ-line (fine) which is an elastic thread. It doesn't add strength (some of my WWI types need the rigging) but it's rather convincing and easy to do. I have a little video showing how I do it but I'm sure there are other and better ways...

Happy rigging!

Echoing the others here. Weathering and effects beautifully executed Dan. A real treat to look at.
