So far so good Jan. Just saw this one announced in Le Criquet's thread. Sure is a cutie!

The fabric texturing on the wings and tail are exceptional. The ribbing appears in the photos to be slightly raised. Did you lightly score on the inside before constructing them?

No, I have not scored the ribs.
It is it is entirely due to the excellence of the designer's work!

Excellent job Jan, even more so because the model isn't so easy to assemble. And I'm in a good position to know that!
All I have to do now is get back to work on another extraordinary model (and there's no shortage of subjects)!
