Very good job, and nice to read about it too. I think it is exemplary, not least because you leave an option for each modeller to attach their own interpretation to greyness and thickness of lines of, e.g., the corrugation.

I hope the final result will be presented in a form that maintains the integrity of your original work, i.e. maintains groupings of lines like corrugation. I appreciate even an ordinary pdf of a vector-drawn model, but it would be a lot of (unnecessary) work to isolate the corrugation again, if the grouping of it is lost in the "saving as" in a new format.

Just a thought: You might want to offer one version for people who just intend to print and build, and another (more voluminous) for those who'd appreciate being able to tinker with it.

If so, you will set another standard, which may show us the way of the future. Then paper modeling will be as much a matter of making one's own interpretation of the original work (shadings, colouring, line thickness, etc.).
