Nice work! Johan's birds are always a pleasure to watch. Indeed, despite the instructions for 80 grams paper, for every Scherft bird model, use 120 grams paper. If the model includes a mount, it's best to print these parts on 160 grams, which is even more stronger.
If you can still do so, try to touch up the edges on the bird's heads with yellow and orange pencil, marker or paint . Cheers, Erik |

Thanks Eric This is what I did I went through with a colored pencil but in the photo it is apparently invisible I will try to paint with a brush and watercolor AVRAHAM

Excellent. Nice work!
Yup - use watercolours to touch up. Spray the bird with a cheap matt varnish from your local hardware store and then touch up with the waterclours. Remove any excess with a damp finger or lint-free cloth - easy if the bird has been varnished!

Nicely done, with good in-progress images.
I learned from your comments and the subsequent inputs. Don |

Very nice build and clear build sequence Avrahamri. As long as it is intended to clear spray the finished model, I have found simple colored pastel ideal for disguising the white edges. It doesn't soak in so it can be generously applied and any excess is easily brushed away. It does need a clear spray sealer applying though or it will soon fall off. I do recommend a clear sealant anyway as I have found most of my models soon fade in sunlight.
