Thank you all for the interest in my build. The wheel. I admit, it was black marker pen, and it never should have been. The marker tended to leave a slight purple sheen, next time I will definitely use black paint for the least, or try the pigment solution. The paper I used would be considered 'coated paper', if I got the name right. It's basically the type of card one will find in well-made pamphlets or posters.

Not long ago I have recommended this model to a friend, he was enthusiastic but said he wouldn't build it without an exposed Griffon engine, which does not currently exist as a cardmodel... I do feel these experimental or prototype subjects hit a strange sweet spot in me. I am almost finishing the Ascender and also have the Black Bullet ready to go, as well as in the process of buying the Shinden. But, am I right that Orlik seemed to have stopped its propeller plane series in recent years after the MB-5? I have nothing against their land vehicles or airliner series - the Tupolev is on my list, but I thought single-engined planes was what Orlik had been known for...
